Daniel should've pressed both criminal and civil charges against the Cobra Kai when they chased him down after he soaked Johnny. They could've been charged not only with assault but also with attempted murder.

don't you think that may have change the whole context of the story, turning it into a court room drama followed by a prison drama rather than the uplifting tale of the bulled rising up and turning the tables,

you may as well ask why batman doesn't get a speeding ticket, or James bond doesn't get an std,

How about:
It's a movie and that wasn't a part of the story line written into the movie.
 
Because unbeknownst to most, Daniel had warrants for grand theft auto out of New Jersey and was trying to lay low in Cali.

Daniel was high and didnt call the cops because he would have been arrested too.

It was the 80,s

You didn't go to the cops back then.

The English government has found the cure for STDs.

They're just keeping it secret.
 
I hear syphilis is making a nice comeback here in the States. It’s the government. They made a super strain and withhold the effective antibiotics so they can easily treat themselves yet watch everyone else suffer.

I’d do the same thing if I was in charge.

Mr Miyagi also did 5-6 for running a chop shop and replacing VINs.

The "teaching karate" was just a front....he was actually recruiting him to boost cars for him.

Because pressing charges might seem like tattling (remember, these are high schoolers).
 
Long time ago so I didn't recall that he watered down Johnny. That would be assault and battery.
 

While, the video is very tongue in cheek. There is some truth to the issue that Daniel provoked some of the situations.

Especially after the first one, he knows Johnny is:
  1. Violent
  2. Better than him at martial arts
  3. Has more friends than him
  4. Those friends also feature traits 1 & 2
Does he deserve to get beaten up as badly as he does? Probably not. Is it an outcome he should have seen coming? Yep.

There's a big difference between pranking your friends and pranking your enemies.

Do you have problems telling fiction from fact?

There is a formula to writing drams, you have to entertain and make money for the film company. It makes for very mundane conversations if you constantly question fiction.


Drop Bear, no such thing as the 'English' government, doesn't exist however lots of cures for STDs do.

That is what the English government want you to think.
