Dashcam caught the action but it was avoidable drama for the good guy if he'd stayed inside his truck.
Everyone has lost perspective on what a minor offence deserves as a response on the internet and then they take that attitude to the streets...

Pissing in your skinny jeans isn't a good look!
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

Based on the narrative provided in the video and the video footage itself, it appears that two A#1 a-holes met in public. One of the a-holes got physically aggressive and then the other a-hole responded appropriately and laid him out. I can't determine from the video or the story who if any is a "good ole boy" and who is a Karen. It seems, from the narrative, either one could be either one or both could be either one.
I got news for people, pick the guy you pile on most on this forum. The guy who threw that punch could very well be "that guy". Either way, in my opinion, I think he was justified in laying out the other guy. That's just my take. However, I am open to the fact I could be wrong. If you don't believe me, ask the homunculus from Alaska.

So what happens if the guy dies because his head hit the pavement - concussion, brain bleed, whatever. Is this possibly manslaughter, or something else? You never know how a DA is going to look at this. I don't think you can count on every DA looking at it and saying "Oh yeah, fully justified. No charges." Hell, there could be a horrendous civil suit depending on the injuries.
Yeah, FAFO. Maybe for both of them. When someone corners you against your car in a rage, then violently knocks something out of your hand while remaining in a hostile posture, you are permitted in the law to neutralize him with anything short of the kind of force reasonably calculated to be lethal or to create serious bodily injury. A single punch to the face (even if it might cause death or serious bodily injury) is not considered force calculated to bring about death or serious bodily injury, but rather calculated to neutralize any further aggression from the attacker. Andrew Branca would certainly phrase it that way. But would you want to gamble your life that the jury will see it that way?

Well here is my unsolicited take. The slugger is left handed and positioned himself where he could effectively Knock the schit out of the skinny jeans guy. He knew something might happen and he put himself in a favorable position to hit the guy hard on the jaw. The skinny jeans guy was/is a dumbass. Would I have hit him? Yes. Would I have cared about my possible legal issues? No. Where I live in Johnson county I doubt I would have had to go down town and explain what happened.

Is the dude that got knocked out wearing tights? I was sitting here wondering - did the skinny jeans work like compression stockings, and help keep the blood flowing to that feeble little brain?

Stupid roadside fight. He's lucky the guy didn't have a fractured skull, followed by death. Stupid two ways.

I boxed in high school and College. The point really is the slugger thought about hitting the guy before he did.

Justified, but coulda easily cost him thousands in legal fees.
I dunno what events led him to decide to stop and get out of the truck, nor do I know how bad his driving transgression was if there was one.
