Do you have a question? Why do you think you were "wrongfully" terminated? Certainly, fighting in the parking lot will get a lot of people terminated. A uniform and being "off the clock" have nothing to do with it. An employer is also not a judge - they don't have to be concerned with who started it or who acted in self defense. They don't have to put up with any fighting employees. It isn't high school.
