Ahhhhh Gov...
But seriously, maturity be ****ed with a 10 foot pole in a case like this.
If the kid was talking shit, he should have been prepared to follow through. I agree with mjrouse, people need to harden the **** up sometimes.

I honestly do hope something happens to the guy. Not because I'm an asshole (though I can be at times... ), but simply as it'll be the only way the guy learns. There's a time to involve authority, and there's a time to go roaring in with bare knuckles. Few enjoy the antics of someone who doesn't know when to shut up...
