‘Victim right to beat up mugger’ says judge

Tin hat on, but a bit irresponsible of the judge imo. Sure, it's fine if you're a fit 25 year old and the mugger's a knuckle-dragger, but a different mugger could have fought back and really hurt him - or worse.

Anyone reading that might be tempted to do the same if held up themselves - and might not be so lucky.

I felt the judge kind of hinted at that when he said it's a good thing the "victim" was a big strong lad. In other words, the law is saying the only thing you need to worry about is your own safety, you don't have to worry about the legal ramifications of giving a clip to someone who's trying to commit a violent crime against you. Which is fair and needed to be said.

Is it OK if I'm a big strong lad and I get mugged by a 70 year old bloke in a wheel chair?

I'd give the clunt the biggest beating of his life if he ever tried to steal MY £3 dinner money.
 
Nah, 'fought off' I'd say. He should have beaten him up to be fair like.

True story this one.

We visited a mate in Bermuda in the 90s and a few SAFC fans were living there.

One lad from Chester-le-Street was visiting and a local tried to mug him, I even think he pulled a knife.

So the SAFC lad gave him a total pasting.

His name was Steve I think and is mates with Barry Endean.
