If it was on MLK Jr Blvd it is a crappy neighborhood. Whatever city it is in.

Wherever it is it is a big enough city to have a crappy enough area to have a street named after MLK JR.

But instead of Malcolm X Boulevard it happened at Malcolm Forbes Boulevard. Otherwise it could have gotten really bad.

Sure it is. A crazy road-rager attacks a lawfully armed citizen and dies.

Happy ending.

The MLk street in Savannah is filled with road ragers. Never had a problem when honking my horn in Florida, just dont do it to certain people in Savannah. There’s a communist black agitation cell down there.
