Why is anybody surprised at this?
Schools, the Gov't, Police...Hellfire, our entire society have spent the last 30+ years indoctrinating people to believe that they are incapable of defending themselves or others, that to do so "a'int yore place, boy," and that the correct response is to "be a good witness." These kids were simply doing what their schools, teachers, TV news anchors, DARE officers, and assorted other Zampoliti have been telling them to do.
Can't have people taking the law into their own hands, after all.
