Me and a few mates of mine went too far...
When I were a nipper (well ok, in my early teens), this kid had been mouthing off to us, for no real apparent reason. Right mouthy little fuck that he was. He used to hang around with us, but he'd always end up dropping all of us in the shit with the neighbours and the Police, giving us all a bad name.
The last time he did it we'll all gotten involved with the Police due to him (he'd vandalised a local primary school), and we were all pissed off and promptly ousted him from our fold.
About a week later....one faithful evening, we are sitting down on our tods minding our own business. Lee's house was ahead of us, but we weren't really doing anything as such to provoke his, or anyone else's attention. Lee comes out of the house and starts hurling abuse at us all, for pretty much no reason at all. I get a bit fucked off at this, so I start walking up to him getting ready to lamp the little cunt. I get halfway and notice that one of my mates is standing right next to a wall just to Lee's right waiting for him to step forward. He's looking at me going "Shhh" with his finger. Lee takes one step toward me, and is quickly uppercutted six steps back by me mate from behind this wall.
It turns out that all of Lee's family had been watching this through thier windows, and they pour out on the street (parents included), attacking anyone in sight. There were about 20 early-teens versus 4 teens and a few adults as anything goes, filling the entire road with the Welsh Royal Rumble. A key moment and turning point in our Campaign was when one kid called "Blaena" beat up the mum with half a bush, which screaming "Leave my friends alone!!!!". It was fucking bedlam.
About 10 minutes, 4 Police cars and a Riot Van later, there are kids running everywhere (me included). 10 of us were holed up in my friend's living room, and the Police turned up to find 14 people in a living room watching Coronation Street :D
Those were the days...
