And that's why you don't fuck with random people. You never know who doesn't play around and will put you to sleep for being an idiot with these pranks.

u/Limo_Wreck77 16h ago

I assume everyone is carrying a weapon for my own safety.

You just never know if some idiot will pull out a knife or gun.

Remember that other prankster got a belly shot and the shooter got no charges iirc.

u/Lexi_November 16h ago

He was charged with discharging a firearm inside a mall, but not for the shooting.

57

u/Thin_Bother8217 15h ago

He was charged with both. Acquitted on the shooting, convicted for discharging. Judge sentenced him to time served (about 8 months) and he got out same say as sentence:

Cooks father is a piece of shit for defending his son. He was harassing that guy and trying to get a reaction to post and make money from.
So sick of these rage baiting losers making money off innocent people.

25

u/Thin_Bother8217 14h ago

Yeah, I saw his dad say how his son wouldn't (shouldn't?) stop doing what he loves or something stupid.

While his son was in the hospital after being shot for... doing something that was fucking stupid.

u/AydonusG 12h ago

I said it on the fucking McDonalds "prankster" video, I'll say it again- If you do pranks that involve illegal activity like assault (even phony ones like this) or trespassing, your punishment should be a complete shutdown of online activity, with prison sentences for those who break the conviction agreement. It's not hard to track the breach of conviction there.

u/FUCKTHISWEBSITEBANME 8h ago

I'm not sure how the US works, but in canada this is assault. If he had actually hit the guy it would've been battery.

Edit: I've actually got it mixed up, in the US this is assault too, but it's the US that has a seperate battery charge. This would also be assault in Canada.

Thats a load of shit. How tf you gonna be acquitted for defending yourself then be charged for how you defended yourself?

24

u/It_Just_Exploded 14h ago

I think it was because he carried his weapon onto property that was posted as "gun free". The mall is private property, the owner has the right to say weapons aren't allowed, so technically he broke that law.

Its one of those things that many legal CCW holders do and no ones the wiser unless you have to use it. And if you have to use it, its worth eating the lesser charge to protect yourself and/or family.

Yeah, its kinda fucked up, but thats how the law works sometimes unfortunately.

11

u/Fryboy11 13h ago

It doesn't stop at private property. States that allow open and or closed carry everywhere still carve exceptions so you can't carry in certain public buildings, State colleges are fine. Those public buildings you can't carry in are the state capital buildings where the lawmakers have offices and passed the law saying you can carry a gun anywhere, except near my office.

u/Vampire_Number 11h ago

I have PTSD. I have unintentionally punched or kicked two friends who tried to jump scare me. At this point I just bring it up casually with friends that I don’t do well with being scared. Funny enough this does also mean that I can relax when I know there isn’t any actual danger, so I love haunted houses for that reason. It’s such a refreshing change to actually getting jumped and beaten up.

Agonal breathing. Only his brainstem is still active.

u/Deaner_dub 14h ago

Agonal breathing is a severe medical emergency characterized by abnormal, involuntary gasping, snorting, or labored breathing. It is not true breathing, but rather a brainstem reflex that occurs when the brain is completely deprived of oxygen. It is a critical sign that a person is near death and most commonly indicates that they are in cardiac arrest

Google it for y’all.
