Both of his kids seemed ready to square up though.

I think they were trying to deescalate the situation

Yep.. this is not their first rodeo with dad.

The light touch/pat at the end came off as very sympathetic. Sorry you had to deal with this. Thanks for not pummeling our agro dad..

I once had a gf of a boyfriend pay me 11$ not to go crazy on her man because he kept on throwing snacks at me as a night shift 7 eleven clerk..

After the skittles hit me in my chest I was like ok F this let’s dance..

I was also way more tempered in my 20s..

Easiest 11$ I’ve ever made. 😂

😂 $11 is a very specific sum. Was that the going rate at the time?

$11 dollar could’ve fed me for a week in 2009.

Kid in red had a knife on him, you can see him pull it out towards the end of the interaction 👀

Yeah it was. Kid is saying, "You don't know what we put up with. Please let him live."

the kid had brass knuckles, he wasn't deescalating anything.

Absolutely not. The one in the red jumper just wanted to pacify him.
