Court System
September 10th, 2007I just got my first taste of the U.S. Courts. My son was attacked on his way home from his girl friends house a few weeks ago. He defended himself and got the upper hand on his attacker. He busted the guys head open with a rock. He has been charged with simple assault and disorderly conduct for defending himself. I may be naive but do not understand how a person can be arrested and spend a night in jail for defending your self. The people that make the laws should take another look at this law. My son is no angel but in this case he has done absolutely nothing wrong and will end up having to plead down to disorderly conduct for the conduct of a real prick.
