When frustrated it's best to stay out of the bar! Drink at home, it's safer.

I'm glad that you stood up for the rights of women and animals. As FB said there might be detrimental reprecussions for your AOS. I will ask if you were arrested? If not, but are in the future, please do not cop a plea without the services of an attorney who is versed in immigration reprecussions on your charges.

The redneck had it coming (in Texas, they would say that he "needed killin'"), but you need to be careful that you aren't charged with a crime yourself, such as battery.

Not sure what you told the cops, but hopefully you believed that the girl was threatened and that you were using necessary force to defend her, or something of the sort (hint, hint.)

Since it's a small town, one can hope that the cops will take your side and overlook any flaws in your story, particularly if they already know this guy and don't like him. If you have any doubt, better be ready with a lawyer.
