He tried to fight me but I blocked everything and didn't go on the offensive, de escalating the situation. I still made him leave.
He mostly plays video games all day and eats, that's about it. When I am around him I engage him in conversation about 2 or 3 times a day mostly to judge his mood.
So the laws are designed not to impinge on the rights of people who aren’t dangerous, you might want to go the book route because if he’s not dangerous all you can do is convince him to seek help.
