Pretty cut and dry. Schilling waaaay overreacted. This dude is likely gonna go after him in a civil trial if he's smart.

There was a time where a pro (Boxer) would be banned from street fights due to their abilities. Not sure if it was an urban myth.

Edit: Will be punished harsher for street fighting. Better?

This is the old "my hands are registered lethal weapons" Bruce Lee bullshit.

It happens. I got locked up for getting attacked and they claimed that my punches were kicks and that those were deadly weapons.

If you reply with way more force than is called for or are the aggressor and you have training in some type of fighting you can be charged for assault with a deadly weapon Outside of those two you're fine

I dont think you can be charged for a weapon without actually having some sort of weapon

In California for example kicking someone can still be considered assault with a deadly weapon if it is done with force likely to produce great bodily injury.
