If it were an unexpected potentially detrimental & intimate occasion, that the teen recorded, I'd agree.

But, the teen is aware of the family's history & prejudices.

Sharing the video, and then the social media leverage, is precedent setting. This scenario wasn't a matter of if, but when.

IMO, sad for the backwards bible belt culture. While a sad scenario for the young man to find himself in, I don't feel he did anything wrong.

With that said, what other due course is available to him?
Share the video with law enforcement, for the assault charge?
