MrToothHasYou 05/14/21 10:45:03 AM #28:	I mean Im cool with the girl defending herself but her suggestion breaks a pretty well-regarded journalistic standard of not ascribing alleged crimes as having been done by the accused. In this case the girl was brought up on juvenile charges for aggravated assault, so a news article would be displaying bias if the headline implies that she did stab the dude (even if its otherwise justifying her actions).
