Luckily both were humans. Had one of them been an animal, the other one would be looking at a few years in prison for animal cruelty.
I bet they were fighting over something stupid, they both should have been charged with the same thing, because they both could have seriously injured.
I hope there was no children around to see their ignorance.
Haha - this happened near my house. I bet it was during a fish fry.
I like mine bludgeoned over-easy.
Also, I’m curious to see how this will pan out in court.
Aunt Sarah’s isn’t far away….
The only thing missing was how the onlookers were yelling: JERRY! JERRY! JERRY!
Protip: Don’t bring a frying pan to a knife fight. Or is it the other way around?
Hmmmm if they were really smart about it all; They would have sold ticket’s and made a little green on the side to go with that steak they were fighting over…At least this way they would have both been able to eat! maybe they should talk the meat tenderizer guy first next time around!
Folks are just crazy!!!
I guess the economy has even driven up the price of illegal guns so they are turning to alternative weapons. This could be a good thing?
No meat tenderizer this time, eh?
