  • Wife Tonieh Brisbane-Green said her husband flatlined twice and was placed in a coma after the incident

#8  M. Murcek, here's the ICD10 codes I'd likely assign:

F10-F19 - Mental and behavioral disorders due to psychoactive substance use.

F20-F29 - Schizophrenia, schizotypal, delusional, and other non-mood psychotic disorders

F60-F69 - Disorders of adult personality and behavior

F70 - F79 - Intellectual disabilities

A lot to choose from in these Moonbats

#5  I watched that clip - I'm surprised his left arm's still connected to his shoulder.

#4  Is there an ICD code for "hit in the head with a large bronze statue?"

#3  He should be John Brown, not Chris Green.

#2  He's currently hospitalized, but stable and responding to neurological tests to determine whether he is a dumb-ass.

The only thing that would make this more perfect is if his name was Sherman.
