#2 Wonder if Alphabet(Google, YouTube) can be held liable for hosting of possible violent events?

#5 Cook is why we no longer have nice things. That isn't a prank, that is harassing people past a point of comfort by relying on manners and the law to keep his doughy ass from getting kicked. Bet you a jar of bacon grease all of his targets are not intimidating physically. "Let's go get that stoner looking guy." when he is really runs door dash to sketchy neighborhoods.

And yes, two dudes following me around within arms reach making unhinged retard face gets a promo on The FAFO Show.

#6 Sue Cook for not getting a model release signed. Sue YouTube, TikTok, etc. for letting people profit off videos like this where they didn't get a model release signed.

The vic was a delivery driver. Maybe carrying cash, maybe robbed before. Maybe with the street smarts to recognize when something is going down, something you don't want any part of.

It may be microscopic, but I feel the Universe is more in balance.

#9 Just thinking out loud... "Idiots Getting Themselves Killed" could make for a pretty popular Youtube channel. Suggested catchphrase: "And that's how he done kilt his fool self"
Probably violates the Terms of Service or something.

#10 Had he been harassed recently/continually?

Is there a history of harassment at that food court?
