I can.
But I would have been happy to whack em with my bat. Taken it outside with me quite a few times. But even then I stash it when I get out the front while I take in the situation.
Presenting a bat raises the stakes, Presenting a knife just makes things deadly.
That and there ain't no way in hell I'm running 300m, Not unless the entire street was on fire......

He didn't stab a tagger.
He confronted a tagger, as all citizens should do.
He stabbed a person who was attempting to kill him.
He needs a medal.
David must play fair with the other kids, even the idiots.

Well they must be a lethal weapon as it is now illegal to sell them to under 18 year olds

i dont condone what emery did but i agree with what has been said here, a home detention sentence would have been far more appropriate. he is not a risk to society at large and i very much doubt that he will ever reoffend.
and i agree where was the childs mother while he was being brought up. if morals had been installed in the kid then he wouldnt have been out there tagging other peoples property. some people work very hard for their property and take extreme pride in what they have achieved. the last thing they need is to have a little scum bag tagging all over it.
the police need to get tougher on the little shits. instead of spending so much time busting people for stupid traffic offenses which harm no one they should be out there cleaning up the streets of scum.

Men have been killed with less. Suppose Mr Emery had been unarmed. And had been 'dealt to' by two large angry young men. Would we have been surprised if they had killed him? Knocked him down, and stomped on him. It's happened many times before. A genuine fear for one's life in such circumstances would not be unreasonable.
The knife was of course the 'great leveller'
But, much sympathy though I have for Mr Reid's position, I fear that legally it is dubious.
If you go out and deliberately get into a fight with someone, and find yourself on the losing end of it, and resort to a weapon, with fatal results, you will usually be guilty of murder. It is no defence (usually) to say "I did not actually intend to kill him, just to bash him up and hurt him a bit"
Now when Mr Emery rushed out of his house in pursuit of the taggers, did he really do so with the intent of discussing the artistic merits of their chiaroscuro ? One cannot help but think he meant to give them a hiding.
What he intended to do with the knife when he grabbed it is actually irrelevant. The position would have been the same had he found the knife conveniently lying on the ground at the scene of the confrontation (OK, knifes aren't usually found lying on the ground - say a broken bottle instead, just as lethal) .
Which , logically, makes me feel self defence an untenable argument. But had I been on the jury, my heart would have declared "If you join in finding him guilty of murder I shall stop beating in protest". Unfortunately there is no verdict of "Serves the little shit right". So head and heart must disagree.
Which is where I suspect the jury found itself, and settled for a compromise that has little legal logic.

I hope that sentence has caught the attention of the KB Vigilante, Posse forming, Hunting and Shooting anyone who isn't like me clan.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH
All I heard from her is how much hate she feels towards the guy that stabbed her son. I too, have no sympathy for her or her dead son. Maybe the guy shouldn't have killed the kid, but I am sure he finally got sick and tired of their mess in his neighbourhood. Had the mother been a better parent, i doubt this would have happened in the first place.
Come try tag my fence mother f%%%er.
Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

He killed a skinny 16 year old kid who had a shit childhood, with no father figure and a mum forced to work overseas to support them, brought up in a no hope street with no hope friends with none of the opportunities those who celebrate his death had. You really think Emery's that much of a hero for picking up a knife, chasing down a kid like that and stabbing them to death all for the heinous crime of drawing on his fence?
Forum whore
Boo fucking hoo indoo. Wouldn't have been "poor kid" when he's a little older and stabs a few people for himself, would it?
Forum whore
Having been brought up in a similar set or circumstances - it is not an excuse. No matter how bad life is we all know right from wrong. Whether we choose to ignore it or take it on board is "our" decision.
No. He is not a hero. Just an average bloke pushed to the limit in my opinion but I was not in court and dont know all the facts.
