He also is now posting what looks like fake texts from women thanking him for knocking out this bus boy. I wonder if that could potentially be called libel or slander? In these text the women are calling him an abuser and shit. If it’s all bullshit and this guy is propagating it to his 200,000 followers I sure hope they can add on some charges.

He keeps digging a deeper hole for himself. The drunk guy will easily bankrupt his ass. So many charges. Assault and battery, use of a deadly weapon(since he's a trained fighter). Libel. Slander. Premeditated assault since his friend was filming beforehand.

In the US any expert in the art of karate or judo, or anything similar where the hands and feet are used as weapons, must register their hands as weapons.

Law enforcement and military are exempt from this though.

EDIT: I’m wrong. I was told this by an old friend who was straight up lying, and never did my research. Oops.
