Literally, twisting the man's arm because he was trying to direct him someplace else. The man was clearly in pain. Cannot this bozo be charged with assault? I can't locate a link right now.

(50,365 posts)The staff member was simply doing his job and the asshole grabbed his arm and twisted, you could see the pain of the face of the staff member. The asshole should be charged and forced to resign, imo.

I'm pretty confident in saying that I would kick his ass.

I'm afraid I draw a blank on your nomenclature. I simply see a petulant post and respond in kind.
