Once a person is knocked out you dont keep beating them you fukking idiot... you won nikka the fight is over...this fight wasnt even over no real shyt..all that over a helmet visor smh

I can agree with all that. He needs to be punished but not with a 25 year bid is all I'm saying. He needs help.Look, the actions you take have consequences no matter what age you are. I have seen young people fight over less than this (looking at someone the wrong way) but even than most people have a natural instinct in their head when to stop. This probably isn't a one off incident/twist of fate even, imo. This kid needs help but he probably needs to be kept out of the general population for a while too.
The facts presented are; he was left in an unconcious state where he couldn't properly breathe while having a siezure. Thankfully he got repsonsive medical attention.Does the victim have brain damage? Has that been determined?
You gotta go off the facts that are present...
These reactionary sentiments are why black people are so disproportionally locked up.He may have issues but he needs treatment not prison.

Concussions = permanent brain damage.
As dude mentioned earlier, they're accumulative. The damage adds up so from here on, it will only get worse for him as he gets struck in the head. He was on the ground having a seizure. That's a tell tale sign of brain damage.
I asked about brain damage, not "concussions"...if the victim gets some permanent severe brain damage from this
episode, then we have a new ballgame...
I can agree with that second part but I'm reluctant to abandon a black kid only a few years younger than me so easy.i think he's already there if he's willing to do all of that over a visor. pro-black doesn't mean you have to try & save every black person. there are good & bad in every race, we do ourselves a disservice trying to focus on saving the bad. it shows that being bad brings rewards & support
I was deep into boxing in my teens to early twenties so I know about concussions but he also had a seizure and that can be fatal definitely with the added blows he was receiving. It's a possibility he may other seizures in the future.You don't think it's strange for a juvenile to be charged as an adult for attempted murder for breaking somebodies' nose
and giving them a concussion?
Again - this young man is on the football team. This is something he could've done on the football field
to another player...
Most likely. If he is able to play, he'd have way less time on the field out of his own safety.I'll let you tell it...
...but does he quit the football team now?
TruthThese reactionary sentiments are why black people are so disproportionally locked up.
Give him counseling and probation. Only black men are expected to be treated as adults for mistakes they make when they're 17.
Hope for a speedy recovery for the other kid as well.
In hindsight, it will be. He needs counseling, and direction.
He doesn't need to be locked up and have the rest of his life ruined for a mistake he made when he was 17.
Just my opinion.
That's all you have to contribute to this thread?
