That’s assault.
And didn’t he have any concern what the kids waiting in line would think?
Why would he when he didn’t care about putting a pie in someone’s face. How would he like it????? If I were Santa I would warn him that he better not use that video in whatever junk he is making. If Santa does not give permission Santa could sue the punk.
“And didn’t he have any concern what the kids waiting in line would think?”
He messed up the man’s work clothes for the day, he negated whatever time and effort was devoted by the parents and kids in line to see him, and whatever promotion value the mall hired him for was lost for the rest of the day.
These jerks don’t realize that the other people in the world are not just props to the pie thrower’s self amusement.
Assault witnessed by numerous minors...that’s felonious assault. If the bozo submits that video for a grade, he should be expelled. The judge should forbid him from posting it on the internet or any other place for that matter.
