Daily Mail -  Cory William Morrel, 27, allegedly knocked out his mother after she told him to stop practising martial arts in their Florida home.  She was kicked in the head by her son and left unconscious for five minutes, police said. Morrel has been arrested on suspicion of battery, the Naples Daily News reported.  Collier County sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to Morrel’s home on Friday and found his mother was unable to recall what happened and appeared disoriented and nervous.  She shouted at her son several times, asking him what happened, reports said.  Morrel told deputies that while practising martial arts in the living room, he accidentally kicked a wall causing a scuff mark, the Naples Daily News reported.  He said his mother became angry with him and cursed at him.  It is unclear what happened next due to redacted information related to Morrel kicking his mother in the head, but the suspect said he called 911 when she became unconscious.

Look, sometimes you need to just practice martial arts in your mother’s home without her nagging.  I get it.  Who else hasn’t been watching Karate Kid and immediately did the crane kick when it ended?  Who else watches UFC and then pretends they’re Anderson Silva with flying knees to a family member’s chin?  It’s American is what it is.  So I’m not gonna hate on this guy for getting his kung fu on and scuffing his mom’s walls.  She’ll get over it.  But you don’t knock your mother out, bro.  Poor form.  I mean, she lets a 27 year old man that practices karate unofficially live with her.  You’re pretty much Kip from Napoleon Dynamite.  You don’t knock her out.  You eat shit and stop practicing your leg sweeps when she tells you to.  Now you’re the guy that lost his cool and knocked his mom out with a move you saw a Ninja Turtle do.  Way to go.
