My money is on the homeless guy in this fight. Welcome to the Worlds Richest Banana Republic with Nukes!!
I agree with you. They’ll paint it as, two drunk rich kids asserting their social status over the poor homeless guy.
The only wild card is that both students are from Guatemala (although rich enough to be partying in NYC and going to school in Boston.) Brown from the right area of the world still trumps white guy (even homeless white guy).
We shall see...
