Lesson Overview

3.05 – Who Started It Doesn’t Always Matter: Many people think if they didn’t start the fight, they won’t get in trouble. But schools and police often look at the damage, not who threw the first punch. Once a fight begins, both sides are seen as responsible for stopping it. Even defending yourself can look like aggression if it goes too far. The law focuses on what can be proven, not what was said before. That’s why witnesses and cameras matter more than stories. Sometimes, both people get punished equally to keep fairness simple. Understanding this can stop you from reacting when provoked. Walking away protects you legally and keeps your record clean. Knowing when to let words go can save your reputation, your education, and your peace of mind.
