should he be charged?

Probably depends on how many times he hit the guy... 10 or less, no problem... more than 10... maybe... more than 20... definitely.

Take the emotion out and look at the law. If he did enough to stop the attack and protect his daughter, no charges... if he did a little more, probably no charges given the situation... if he did a LOT more, charges...

If you take the emotion out of it and look at the law, he should be charged regardless. The whole point of this thread is based on emotion: do you think he should be chaged.

I don't care if he came back 3 weeks later and finished the job. I woudn't charge him if it were up to me.

The question was "Should he be charged?". Nothing was mentioned about the legality of his actions. At least to me, it appeared the OP wanted to know our opinions of what he did and the following consequences. If it was about the law then all you would have to do is look at the legal writings that applied.

Either way, it would be hard to find a jury that would convict a father who protected his daughter.
