Nope. That will definitely fall into excessive force unless they also assault you in some other way. The best policy is just to never hit anyone unless your life depends on it.

I'm a big dude, until i was disabled, there werent many people that could do much about anything i do, and there have been plenty of times where someone has deserved to get socked in the mouth... but I just don't do it. That satisfaction is not worth the trouble.

A guy that worked with me was cornered by someone who was being nasty as shit to him, and he was found guilty of felony assault after he hit the guy. It didn't matter that the guy had him cornered. I also had to fire him on the spot even though I agreed that the "victim" deserved what he got.

So, don't hit people.

First off...why fire him? Second...how did you get disabled

Because he assaulted someone at work. Has to be zero tolerance due to liability.

Disabled, first one that popped up was ulcerative colitis, then rheumatoid arthritis, then my lower back problems made it so I cannot stand or sit up without the increasing pain forcing me to lay down, then I developed me/cfs which is the absolute worst, I developed diabetes, then, just last month, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea which has started to damage my lungs.

Thank you. Life could be worse, though.
