Man Accused of Stabbing 4 People After Farts Mocked
On Monday a man stabbed four people at a party after being made fun of because of his flatulence, he is pleading not guilty. He is being charged with murder and assault charges. At the time of the attack Higgins was very drunk. After the man farted he was ridiculed by his friends, and reports say that a women even slapped him. At one he stormed out of the house and returned 45 minutes with three knives, then started stabbing people at random. He stabbed four people Matthew Walton died of his injuries and three others were injured. Higgins told the police that he was angry and he wanted to show people that they shouldn't make fun of him.
I think that this man was obviously intoxicated and very mislead, but this is no excuse for his actions. I think that this man deserves to go to jail for his actions, but I also think that the people who were mocking him shouldn't go unpunished. I think that they think twice when they're about to make fun of someone who just farted next time.

I agree with what Curtis Harvey has said. What he said about the man’s intoxication was correct, and I definitely think that it is not an excuse for his actions. I feel that if he was able to get the weapons and come back to the party, he knew what he was going to do and chose to do it himself. I think that the guys who made fun of him made a mistake but it was not as severe as Higgins response to comments was wrong and he should be held fully responsible for them and pay the consequence.
