| First time poster and here's the deal. My fiances 24yr old son moved in with us a year ago for about a month. Every week he partied and got drunk. One night he called his mom to pick him up at a bar. When he got home he decided he was going to drive compelety drunk. His mom woke me up and asked me to help stop him. I stood behind his vehicle, he got out and blasted me in the face twice. I stood there and stared at him and called the cops at the same time. He was arrested on domestic battery, plead guilty and just got off a year of pre-trial intervention to include anger management and AA. I agreed to the PTI because I thought the kid had some problems and I wanted to see him get help. (history of alcohol abuse) I have a history in boxing and some BJJ, 6'1" 250lb. It took a lot for me to get over being hit in the face without knocking him out. Well I did now he's drinking and starting crap again. He showed up at our business three weeks ago and got into it with one of best employees over nothing. I told him to leave then he started in on me again. Verbally assaulting me in front of customers. He also said he wants to fight me sober now. I said we didn't fight last time you hit me in the head as hard as you could twice and I stared at you, didn't that teach you something. Then he ranted on and on with every cuss word in the book in front my employees and customers before he left. Before you ask my fiance is done with him and stated I will never ask you to be around him again ever. For the last year I tolerated him at family functions and get togethers for the benefit of their family. Thats over now! We will run into each other our town is small. He will never raise a hand to me again and I've had it with his mouth too. If he even puts his hand on me and I react is it considered self defense and do I have to make absolute sure he touches me first? I won't have any weapons involved it will be all hands. |
