Issues that’ll probably end with your incarceration, if they haven’t already.

Yeah, the internet connection in County jail is awesome, Einstein.

I didn't see anything that was mentally challenged either. What I saw was
a tall skinny black man using Kung fu possibly crane against a Karate black belt.
And against a man twice his weight.

The stomps to the head were used to incapacitate and they worked.
The boy got his just deserves according to street rules
if you instigate the fight.

Hey APFel,

Maybe you have some weird type of apathy for trouble making fighters, who knows.
The Art is called self defense, not invading another DOJO's seeking fights to prove something.
I don't think you get it.

The Kung Fu fighter went into another den looking to prove something and he lost.
Is he dead? Maybe, blood was flowing from his ears but then again, just deserves.

The Kung Fu Master had his chance to win, and lost because he was underweight
and backed himself against the wall. That was the turning point in that fight.
The young KF fighter was unaware of his surroundings and lost.

Murder does not apply here, a troublemaker got what he deserved.

And BTW, I hope they did throw his trouble making ass into a dumpster
so he couldn't walk the streets and actually kill an innocent.

Discipline works the same with firearms, it's not to be abused.

I won't comment on your sarcasm.

In a dojo, these sort of things should not happen. Once the fight was decided by a verbal ‘tap out’, the owner and instructor should have stepped in. The fact he didn’t made him an ethical and human-level white belt.

The knee and stomps to the head where the point where this went from martial arts to criminal acts.

Remember, the instructor starts by saying this is an instructive visit by a member of another art.

This isn't the way to treat a guest, and if the guy wasn't a guest, but a pushy interloper, the police should have been called to escort him off the property.

No way this was a justified beat-down.

Perhaps you should go to the link in post 10 and start reading.....if the Kung Fu Guy died, it's called murder, not "just deserves".

Here is an article on the incident, void of any unsubstantiated inferences, speculations or conjectures. It gives only the KNOWN facts of the incident, STATES some of the theories circulating, and DISPROVES some of the theories that hold no water i.e. that KFG claimed he was taught by Jesus and therefore was mentally challenged. Here is the link-

Did you actually see the video? Listen to what the victim was saying. He was obviously mentally ill.

What probably happened before the video started was this guy walked into the place and got the "master" feeling "disrespected".

I won't dignify the instructor with the title "Sensei", because his actions demonstrate he is not worthy. He responds to trash talk by having his student seriously injure the guy.

He is not operating a dojo, he's operating a training school for street thugs.
