Chad stops mass stabber.

I imagine him just sitting there for an awkwardly long time waiting on the cops like, “So, where are you from?”

[u/SomeNotTakenName → u/sortofsatan]

I would hope not, sitting like that has a decent chance to kill the guy on the bottom over time. it's very important to not place your weight on the back/where the lungs are, or you risk suffocating the person you are trying to hold. ideally you would put your knee on the shoulder, which gives you good enough control if the arm is held up, and avoids the issue.

I do realize the guy at the bottom has attacked people, but I don't vibe with killing people, be they criminal or not. plus wouldn't want the chad to catch charges.

[u/NoSleepschedule → u/SomeNotTakenName]

Yes because everyone knows the lungs are in the back and not in the chest, below the ribs which have been designed by evolution to protect them, which this guy is clearly not kneeling on or putting pressure over.

[u/Anarcho_Christian → u/NoSleepschedule]

The ground is putting pressure on his ribs, you wet dumpling.

If he dies, that’s his consequence for STABBING people. No one cares if you vibe with it.

[u/pooinetopantelonimoo → u/ylerta]

I actually agree with you I would give zero fucks if he dies but in reality the state would probably charge him with something like manslaughter, I don't think there are any rights to self defence in Europe, so if someone is injured or dies when you defend yourself from an attack you open yourself up to litigation from the state.

[u/HoptimusPryme → u/pooinetopantelonimoo]

This is laughably untrue.

I'm going to talk about the legal system in England and Wales as that's what I know the most about but I imagine other European countries have similar systems.

Self defence is a justification for a crime, for it to work the responding force must be reasonable and proportionate to the threat (Punch for punch, as an example). A person must have no other option available to them (If they can run to safety they must) and a person can perform a pre-emptive strike in the framework.

This is applied to the other side of the justification which is prevention of a crime, whereby if no officers are present a person may commit some crimes if the force they use proportionate to the threat and would prevent further criminality.

[u/Tartibwii → u/SomeNotTakenName]

If he dies he won't attack nor risk killing anyone ever again. I don't think killing killers deters others from killing. I think killing killers ensure they won't ever kill anyone again.
