What are the odds that the crazy guy who thinks he is Jesus and is about to need a hatchet to the head picks him up?

And he ends up killing the crazy guy?

Give this man an award.

"When a man claiming to be Jesus goes berserk in your vicinity you should politely axe him to leave."

Not my line, but deserved repeating. Saw it here:

I don't know them. I found the video from a FB link before I saw it here. I thought that comment was amusing, but did not read further. What are they?

Unless we want to talk about the guy with two turntables and a microphone, Beck = BLECHHHHH!

Sorry for unintentionally bringing the badness here. Thanks for letting me know.

I'll be his mama. (really...I'm old enough.)

A mix of surfer cool, bat shit crazy and sadness.

Like Gandhi said, I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians.

~and welcome to DU, sadalien

Kai is certainly worthwhile. Shame his family is missing out on what a colorful and unique person he's grown into.

I've ever ridden in my life"... dramatic pause and double nod.

I kid you not.

He should be able to sleep in about 60 hours. He has reason to be excited.

the only comments you have are about his vocab and that he's cute?

be snide to?

that I read that had some negative comment.

not sure what the deal is...

need more tacos or something

As my daughter said to me once, "How come he doesn't act like he's homeless." And I explained, "Because being homeless is not who you are, it's where you live."

There needs to be a book of Kai added to the Bible maybe he was sent down to keep God's Son in line

Good thing he was there

This guy Kai, the world is a waaay better place because people like him are in it.

But anyone who watched the interview knows that already.

PB

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]I love him just being who he is, wish I knew him, and wish him well in his continuing adventures.

This a strange story, with some disturbing events for sure but I love the person that Kai became on his own. Hope he found a wet suit and some waves and is okay.

Shrug. "I can't call it."

Yea, that's a better idea!

was a documentary?

But seriously, dude, gnarly and good on ya!


rocktivity

I think many of us know Kai. I think that's what makes this story and interview so awesome. Cuz we know Kai is a good person and are happy to see the world get a glimpse of that, too.

I remember guys like Kai at the Pipeline.

I worked as a bartender.

I swear, at a demo, in the park...

Suuuuh...MASH!

I think some news organizations wouldn't have bothered to finish the interview with him and we would have missed out on the good deeds Kai did.

I am familiar with good old Jeff "I don't know" Spagolli.

Let's get a petition started That would be beyond awesome. Dude.

Julie

& take away medicare & the Prez said 'No way fuckers!' & shit. Can anyone give me a ride to Ocean City?"

The daily briefings would be fuckin' awesome!

Kia still has a big old adrenalin rush going.

Bless him he done good.

We need mental health services in this country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck Hagel.....this dude's gnarly man!!!

Use your 15 minutes wisely dude

Suuper bowl and is he in favor of an assault weapons ban, dude?

ABIDES.

Kai is adorable! And a hero ... I hope great things happen for him from this.

I liked Kai's Facebook fan page and they have a response from Kai!

I've had a look but could only find this heart melting one: https://www.facebook.com/kaisfanpage

It's Kai of Dogtown.

https://www.facebook.com/KaiOfDogtown

Looks like he's getting a lot of new friends out of it.

WWKD - What Would Kai Do?

There's a large subculture of homeless children roaming our country. I've seen many, many "Kai's" in New Orleans. They are abandoned, largely invisible, survivors.

rad

and for the first minute or two I laughed, but there's something off about Kai. Either he's high or something.

is a dead ringer for Kai re the way he talks. He's hilarious ... and the thing is, he's talked that way since he could first string together a sentence. Listening to him, and watching the animation on his face .. it literally hurts my face and sides after a few minutes.

in my flat whenever he wants and for as long as he wants.

Wish there was some way to tell him that.

Okay, back to the rest

Didn't want to be bummed out by an injured bear story.

But DUDE! Story turned out way more excellent!

Good and safe travels to Kai!

What a great American. What a HUMAN.

I'd be very carefull about giving money to a 3rd party, an established homeless shelter is a better choice.

You can see online how much is donated too!

doubt it because he can't get a bank account without a last name, birthday and ss number.

is a man for all seasons.

He is brilliant.

they post it here.

Kai may not be a eloquent speaker, but his actions sure speak louder than words . did the right thing

I watched this and loved it then found the actual newscast segment. They cut out the part where he asked the viewing audience if anyone could lend him surfing gear. He deserves that at the very least, man!

TlalocW

Seriously, has Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes seen this?

Give Caleb Kai Lawrence, the Hitchhiker who stopped the Racist Jesus Nut's attack, a little help.

And give this thread a REC!

Unique place with unique people. Love my State.

Montani Semper Liberi

Just curious.

There's video of the car with damage, the woman he helped and her daughter, pics of the hatchet, etc.

he was very calm, lucid and clear when asked why he helped the woman. I hope Kai gets some help...he's a sweet person.
