"Bro, your face is pissing me off, want to throw down?"

That's an example of the sort of dialog that goes on in a new app called Rumblr, which can be used to set up fistfights with total strangers — you know, Fight Club style.

Rumblr is set up like a dating app, except the dates happen in parking lots and back alleys, not restaurants, and they culminate in throw-downs instead of get-downs.

Sigh.

    Yes, but in cases like that both parties would be prosecuted. Hence why it's likely to be somewhat less likely to result in criminal charges.

    And even if it is prosecuted, it would be very difficult to prosecute as both parties involved would undoubtedly take the 5th when it comes to testifying.

    All it takes is one video and a prosecutor gets two easy wins.
