It may be time for a little "canal justice". I'm not advocating vigilantyism, just making sure that any scumbags that will willing assault ANYONE are made to pay for their actions. Maybe police involvement, maybe a "stake-out" where an "unsuspecting" fisherman draws these social cockroaches out from the safety of their (possibly) subsidized "roach motels", and are treated to the same considerations they give their victims. In any case, if something isn't done to stop these assaults, they will only escalate in frequency as well as severity.
I hope the kid will see justice done, and that he will not be deterred from enjoying one of life's greatest pasttimes.
