If you notice tho, it doesn't say obscenity, it says language meant to provoke violence, so the kid was probably in the guys face doing it.
Here's a little story for ya. At work one night we were having a problem with a kid being loud and violent, so we took him to the time-out room. We had 3 staff in there, we always have more staff than really needed back there, not to keep us from getting hurt, but to protect the kid. This day the kid in question decided to really try to get someone to hit him as he started getting in faces and screaming about how when he got out he would come back and rape and kill the other two guys daughters who at the time were 2-4 years old, and how he was gonna rape and mutilate their wives, etc. You know how hard it was not to just flatten that kid?
Kids seem to know that they can do whatever they want to adults and the adults can't respond unless they want jail time. They need to learn its not acceptable before they reach the age of 18 and try it again.
