after you hit someone, you never know how they'll fall

quote:

Deputies began investigating around 9:20 a.m. March 7. Myers said video of the incident, shows Hughes striking Morgan in the face with an open palm. Morgan fell backwards off his chair and hit his head on the cement floor. A second-degree battery warrant for Hughes was issued that day.

After Morgan died from his injuries on March 10, the warrant was upgraded to manslaughter, Myers said.

That sucks but you have to know that's a chance you're taking when in that situation

people truly don't think it's possible, esp when they let the dark side flow through them and anger takes over

I fully expected those guys to be in their 20s or 30s.

Nope, 50s and 60s.

This is why you walk the frick away from a fight unless you're cornered and you or someone else's safety is at risk.

Tough thing, he probably didn't intend to kill him or even think it was possible. He'll probably die in prison now.

Or if you don't want to look like a puss or if you know you will wreck shop. That being said don't blast a 64 yr old, there is a good chance it won't end well.

Smacked with a palm and his head split like a coconut. Lifeline check.

Possibly. Manslaughter carries 0-40 years and he's 56. Probably won't get that much time but you never know.

Isn't that an oxymoron? I mean, are there any 'smart' bar fights?

Had no clue it was even him until it was all getting broken up and a buddy said something, thought it was some dumb hillbilly.

Adults fighting over petty bullshite that kids fight over is monumentally retarded and trashy. It's not like a 5th grade schoolyard fight where the worst you get is a shiner. The potential for serious injury and death is way too great.

Also, if the internet hasn't taught you by now that you are extremely vulnerable to getting blindsided by a buddy of the other guy and beaten in the head when down or even unconscious, then not walking away from a fight is on you.

I'm not getting beat into a retard state because somebody smudged my Puma. I'm gonna let that shite slide...
