Re: I don't know what all the fuss is about!
One of the mitigating circumstances was that the thug pleaded guilty.
I am not aware that the victim used any racial terms.....he just told off a guy for riding his bike on the pavement, telling him it was 'dangerous'......and he was felled by a single blow from the thug.
Ok, he didn't intend to kill the man but he did intend to hurt him.
