This whole retarded debate started with the fact that school admins suspended both students.
It was entirely the correct decision. They're not in fucking high school. It's not like the suspension matters. It's not going to effect him in any way. It's not punitive. It does, however, give him a chance to go home and let things blow over before coming back to school. If he went back to school the next day, there'd be a shit storm. All the friends of the tiny kid would be all over him. It just creates unnecessary drama. He was in a fight, he gets suspended. Period. It's the right call.
I'd be shocked if the school administrators didn't admonish the parents of the little kid while telling the parents of the big guy that it was a precautionary, blanket measure.
There's also the possibility that they didn't see the video before making the decision, in which case, no matter who started it, your inclination is going to be to question the kid that is twice as big and won the fight.
