I can't say much for this kid. I mean if all's as you say it is, then the lad shouldn't be punished. They whould know it was self defence, but he will still be bitched about for carrying an offensive weapon.

But one of my friends used to carry a knife around to school. For personal purposes, I never fully knew why she did. I mean one day she was just incredibly pissed off at the world and told me she was going to stab on of the lads she hated. I mean I dislike the guy, but I'd never want him hurt.

Now, she'll hate me for saying this. But she used to be a violent angry person [she's not anymore, she's sweetness]. So I was shatting myself that she would actually stab him. So after pulling her into corridor, I took knife off her. And I carried it about in my bag for 3 weeks, until at one point, after she talked to me after school about wanting to hurt someone again, I burst into tears.

Alright, so kinda offtopic, but I think that it's unnecessary for people to have knives, for self protection or otherwise. It causes to much stressums. He shouldn't have had the knife anyways, so for that he should be punished. Not for protecting himself.
