It doesn't matter the age. Texas passed an illegal law. It's hilarious to think about it, but by the same measure, that means the kid could grab the metre stick and smash it over the teachers head in self defense. In most civilized parts of the world. Parents aren't even allowed to spank their children. 2) You're generally not allowed to kill somebody in self defense over a minor assault, so that's also wrong. You shouldn't try to, but if you are being attacked, you are allowed to defend yourself. What that results in will usually be forgiven. You are objectively wrong on both counts. 1) It is absolutely legal to hit someone if, for example, they are physically attacking you. 2) In spite of point #1, if you kill someone because they are slapping you repeatedly, good luck not spending the rest of your life in jail. --- "Nostalgia is a hell of a drug." -Magus 10 <cite>Tropic_Sunset posted [p:883415037] in Texas has ...
