I am a 25 year-old gay male who gets very upset and sensitive when people call me names like **** and Gay-asss. I was visiting the school grounds where my mother teaches and while waiting for her to get off work, two 11 year-old boys noticed how I was walking, and one of them called me a **** and laughed. I told him to shut up but he wouldn't listen, so I chased him around the playground. Being a fat man, I couldnt run very well, and the young boy teased and taunted me as I chased him, calling me the F-word over and over, saying I should lose weight too. Surprisingly he lost his balance and fell. I caught up to him and literally kicked the holy hell out of him, stomping him on the face and slamming his head against the concrete pavement.He screamed in pain but I didn't care-I told him "Dont you ever call me those names again!" He had no right to do that. Anyways my mother found out after some passerbys called the police. I now have a court date. I dont understand- I was defending mysel

What a transparent and stupid question. So I would guess that you are probably a 13-year old boy with a latent homophobic streak, trying to waste time on the internet by making up moronic and purely fictional situations.

You are twenty five and you kicked and stomped an eleven year old boy? Defending yourself? Against what? Words...insults. Fight with the same weapons he used. You were absolutely wrong to attack (not defend yourself) the boy for any reason just because of the age difference and probably size and weight too. How can you even try and justify it just because you are gay. I'm old and people have pointed it out in colorful ways, children are especially insensitive. I know that and I knew it when I was twenty five too. Beating up children will not make you any more of a man. I could handle you smacking him on the *** or a good spanking but this is now, and was then wrong. Why do you even ask...you know it is!

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. You do realize that these were children that were talking don't you? Children aren't known for their kindness. Especially at school when they are with their peers. Unfortunately for him you just made him dislike gay-men even more! And if you yelled anything bad to the child it could almost be seen as a hate crime towards the child. The boy was a child and you were the adult. Therefore you should have known better. Any way, if you get so upset when people say things, can you really say you are happy with the way you are? If you were confident with who you were, you would have just kept walking.
Oh and P.S. you were not defending yourself. You were taking your anger of being who you are out on the boy. Which means you deserve to go to jail. Look on the bright side at least you can now find friends that would be on your side...............

Defending yourself? Your 25, there 11. Whose the adult in this situation? Obviously not you. Ever heard of Battery & Assault, you go to jail for that even if the person you hit was over 18. You also Assaulted a Minor. Ever heard "sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me". I hope you rot in jail (probably get a suspended sentence and never serve any time). But you deserve to sit a long long time in a cell somewhere. The kids were wrong yes, however, they never laid a hand on you, you had no right whatsoever to touch either of the two in a physical way. Turn the other cheek, says the bible. Water off a ducks back, is what I say. I'm fat, so what. I'm ugly, so what. I'm a lesbian, so what! Grow up, you fat *** ******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You were not defending yourself. By saying that you are saying that an 11 year old child was a threat to you, a grown man. You were wrong in what you did. The kid was also wrong for taunting you but he is 11 and that is what kids that age do. If you are willing to be openly gay, so much so that it is obvious when you are simply walking, you should be openly willing to accept this kind of treatment even though it is wrong. It is a lifestyle you choose to live and you will exposed to openly opinionated people on the streets, that is a fact you need to come to terms with. I hope you have a good laywer because not only did you assault someone but, you assaulted a minor who posed no physical threat to you. Good luck at your court date.

If this is true, then you really do not deserve to go to jail. However, you do deserve to be locked in a room with his father for 5 min., hopefully he will beat the living he** out of you. You hit a 12 yr. old for calling you names, is that because you are to much of a punk to stand up when people your own age call you those same names? Dude, I'm not saying you deserve to be picked on but get real he was just doing what all 12 yr old's do, be the man and ignore him

What is wrong with you? you are an adult, that was an 11 yr old kid. no matter what he had said to you ,you never ever ever hit a child.i really think you have childhood issues you need to work out and that boy just triggered that. You need councelling,anger management or something. You sholud've called that boy's parents and tell them about their son behaviour , but to beat him up is way out of line. There is anger and built up anger inside you and you need a therapist or you'll just keep lashing out at kids and everyone wo calls you a name you dont like. Im sorry for what you had to go through but c'mon , i mean sticks and stones.......
sheesh

You werent defending yourself...If he were attacking you then you would be defending yourself..Of course its understandable that you were angry that he called you those names..I would be too..I dont think that was a reason to attack with with all the anger that you described... I think maybe all the years of name calling (if you had any) all came out on that little boy..Long story short, I dont think you were right to hit the child and id support the persons action to call the police..

Yes you were wrong!!!! Your 25 and the kid was 11.
How does a 25 year old man let an 11year old get to him like that. You should have just walked away. I know if that was my kid and you put your hands on him I would beat the holy **** out of you and have a court date of my own.

You were the adult...he was the child. You should have known better...now you'll have an assault charge on your permanent record...was it worth it...you have to learn to turn the other cheek and to be the bigger person...I know all of the hatred from close-minded people and UN-educated children and adults hurts, but you have to be able to rise above it and be the bigger person. You tried to defend yourself and only made matters worse for yourself and for your cause...Try to be smarter in the future.
