You could have actually read the whole thing and seen my replies. Then you wouldn't feel the same. The whole thing was wrong.
I read as much as there was at the time I posted, which is all the replies previous to mine. You have not told the entire story here. You start in the middle. There is a significant gap here and that is what went on between you and the other guy and why. The bottom line so far here is that you pulled a knife on the guy; he didn't pull one on you. You belittle the fact that it was a "swiss army knife.' I agree, as will most people, yet you pulled it. That has me shaking my head in dismay. If you THOUGHT it was a weapon sufficient to defend you, then it was. The fact that it was a swiss army knife becomes less relevant by your own actions--kinda like saying, "Gee officer, it was only a .22!"
I'm not exactly siding with the cops here, but we certainly don't have their side of the story, or the side of your antagonist. This didn't "just happen" and we have your side only and it is very clear that you haven't laid out the entire sequence of events.
Why not post a newspaper account of the incident and let us judge for ourselves? Tell your antagonist you've started a thread here and let him tell his side as well.
