It turns out that touching someone in any way at all (and in your story you grabbed his shirt, which is more than I did) can get you into legal trouble fast. My salvation was some really fast talking and apologizing on my part, which of course entireley deflated my oritinal purpose. Some of these losers understand the legal system well enough to use it as a weapon against the forces of good. Other posters have pointed out the obvious risk of violence to you and damage to your property. I just thought I would point out another area of vulnerability. If you are going to do this kind of thing, it is good to know what the risks are so you can control them as much as possible. I'm really glad your act paid off and I hope there are no future repurcussions. My advice to you is that next time, don't touch the guy unless he takes a swing at you. And if that happens, as soon as the scuffle is over, make sure you are the first to call the cops. It is never clear to the cops who the aggressor was, so the one who calls the cops is in a much better position.
