A grade school tried to punish me for stopping someone from hitting me by grabbing their wrist.
I said, to punish a nonviolent intervention would only incentivize future reactions would be violent, they had to think about their policy, because as I put it, “if grabbing their wrist for self defence was going to be punished the same as me punching them in the face” I’d settle for brutal violence in the hopes to persuade others not to hit me.
Children vs principals with masters degrees in a logic debate and the kids win. Sad
