Imagine ruining your entire life over getting kicked out of a bar.

This poor manager gave his life for a job that will replace him by next week.

Had a friend whose dad worked law enforcement at a prison. And he said if people knew how many guys were behind bars over throwing a punch 🤛🏻 and “accidentally” killing another person, they’d think twice about being a tough guy.

Imagine going to work and never coming home because someone got their feelings hurt.

Alcohol is a lot worse drug than people will admit.

4 drunk guys will start a fight, 4 guys stone on weed, will start a band. Booze is so bad

Not a patron but a murderer!

One man lost his life and the other threw his away, for absolutely nothing.

Drinking can ruin your life like that

Honestly alcohol is evil.

Young man this part of your life is called accountability. It will be a very hard life lesson.

We live in an age where 26 year-olds have not mentally developed past childhood.

If he lived in Palmdale, that's a 120 mile round trip, just to make a living. Rest in Peace sir.

He will be crying in court, and squealing in jail.

Five years ago, in a road rage incident in San Bernardino, California, a 31-year-old career criminal sucker punched a 70-year-old sheriff who died when his head hit the concrete sidewalk. Then he fled in his truck. When he was caught, he was able to plead guilty to only voluntary manslaughter (as well assault and "threatening a crime"). He got only 10 years. Goes to show you how lenient the DA and courts have gotten over the last few years. If someone like that got only 10 years, image what this guy will get when his lawyer claims "the alcohol made him do it".

26 years old, his young life is toast! RIP to the manager.

"Overserved customers"?? That's an interesting choice of words... Sounds like something a defense attorney might say...

NO PRIDE, NO DIGNITY, NO CLASS.

In Australia the legal term is called a coward punch. Because only cowards do this kind of thing.
