(We rented residential space in an old house in Rockland County, NY).

The husband and his brother were nice enough -- until they started talking about going out on Friday and Saturday nights to the local watering holes.

Their purpose: not necessarily to get drunk, but to engage the local boys to get into a fight so they could "wup" them. They were into the Civil War and wanted to play it out again outside the bars.

When I see guys like the one in the TikTok, I think of the Idaho brothers. Bored and wanting to just beat someone up.
