If the case had involved 2 gangs going at each other with choppers or broken beer bottles, I wouldn't be too bothered. Just tell me where it happened and I'll try to avoid that area.You have a point. My uncle had slashed and slaughtered don't know how many people in his life, knew Beach Road and Robinson Road lockups like his own backyard and went to Pulau Senang for two spells of vacation. It was also fortunate that he was released a few days before the Pulau Senang riot. It was one of the rare cases where rioting (even with weapon and causing death) ended up in death penalty.
But in this case and many other cases that have happened before, there was clearly an aggressive armed attacking party, and an unarmed defenseless victim party, who were perhaps rude and stubborn. Being rude and stubborn is not a crime and certainly does not deserve such an outcome.
