In Mississippi that is simple assault. He will pay a fine and be done.

Also shows that more people are committing crimes because apparently what we are doing is not deterring them. If you know any bail bondsmen ask them how scared their clients are of going to prison.

That is correct. There is no major damage. He will get a simple assault charge and pay $350.00. No jail time.

I'd like to see it broken down further into violent and non-violent crimes. I'm afraid it would tell a scary story. I imagine most of the incarcerations are dumb drug offenses, while they let assault/rape/murder criminals out at an alarming rate.

I agree, in this day and age. Don't try to be the alpha male tough guy. I don't care bad you think you are....one mis-step or if a guys' pals jump in, your face could be eating concrete and never be the same again. Street fights are beyond stupid. There are people out there with absolutely nothing to lose and just want to see destruction.

How Dak handled it? He had not choice, they jumped him. It was like 15 on 3, they never had a chance, that's why they got beat down. Another reason to not engage in that tomfoolery.

Somebody should have swole both his eyes shut and sent him on his way.

Let me give an example of how this ends in TX in a road rage situation. Just as the Harvey rain was ending here in Houston, and the sun began to shine, just outside my suburban neighborhood, a young man in a convertible angered another man somehow creating a road rage situation. They stopped at a red light about 100 yards from the turn in to my neighborhood, and the guy that was mad walked up to the convertible (top down) and began to punch the driver. The driver unloaded a pistol through the door, killing the man that was hitting him on the spot. This occurred about a block from where a number of national guard and police were parked, helping with the flooding, so they began performing cpr on the guy almost immediately. Hopefully, this young hot head will learn that these situations rarely end well.

I read that he had another assault charge on his record. Would that increase the fine and penalty in Mississippi?
-
Fine and or jail time could increase if the judge wanted to impose it. Simple assault does not increase to a felony after 3 convictions like a simple domestic assault does.

Jail time or not, the old guy can sue until it hurts.

I think that both of those cats learned/will learn a valuable lesson... don't be a dick.
