Do you NOT understand what I just wrote? No one is saying that a mentally retarded adult isn't responsible for his actions, the difference is in the standards we hold this man to; a mentally deficient adult is not held to the same standards for culpability as other adults, and this makes a lot of sense. Mentally handicapped adults are treated differently because they don't have the same faculties. So are kids, so are teenagers, so are people suffering from dementia.

I'm not even saying the father did something wrong. He saw someone attack his child and reacted to protect and hurt anything that might threaten his small child. That's very natural. Though the man his kicked the kid was likely not trying to cause any actual harm and had no notion how his behavior would be perceived. It's a terrible thing that happened on every side. This isn't justice, this is just a shitty event that I think everyone should wish never happened. Justiceporn seems to be marked by people getting what they had coming to them. Well, we don't see aggressive dogs getting put down and think "fuck yeah" for the same reason I'm not saying "fuck yeah" here.

I get it, you're incredibly uninformed and you love talking like you know what's up. But maybe you should spend more time reading and thinking, less time typing. Next time someone's teaching, why don't you get taught.
