Had he mopped the floor with them and had a good lawyer, he could prove that the punch in the mouth was uncalled-for retribution but was not going to be followed up by any further violence. Also, not all of this group were minors.

Also, only the boy he hit was involved with throwing the egg, once the other kid hit Young in the head with the baby stroller, it was a different ballgame.
