I have, up to now, not be likened to a ‘road rager” - live and experience, I suppose.
Lawerly obfuscations aside, allow me to analyze what you posted.
“Be a man and apologize first to diffuse the situation. If this happened to you, you were already singled out and set up for a beat down. Take the bait if you want, but it will not end well for you, your wire, or your kids.”
1. “Be a man and apologize first to diffuse the situation.”
May I inquire as to when an apology to an attacker does any good, or which moral, ethical or religious system supports cowering before an unjustified attack?
2. “If this happened to you, you were already singled out and set up for a beat down.”
My point being made by you - ignoring the provication/intended attack will do nothing but encourage the predator, true for Urban Ferals as for four legged predators.
3. “Take the bait if you want, but it will not end well for you, your wire, or your kids.”
When an attack is starting, cowering does nothing for the intended victim. Gunfire does.
Please not, your snark about “road rage” aside, no one has the right to attack a man and his family. Not even Urban Feral blacks.
Assume the best possible situation as an attempt to see these black attackers in the best light - if the white families were blocking the side walk and the blacks wanted to move through the family ahead of them, all the blacks had to do was say “Excuse me, we would like get by.”
If you are suggesting that expecting standard American mannerly behavior is something whites can’t expect of blacks, then I must disagree.
Those who would trash American societal norms, normalize ‘ghetto behavior patterns’ and attack a man and his family members, run the risk of historic, legal, and moral responses.
Perhaps you are confusing ‘road rage’ with ‘right behavior’?
;-)
The attack started after the victim reacted aggressively to the bumping. Yes, he took the bait.
Had he apologized for his child or whatever getting in the man’s way, nothing would have happened, except losing a little face.
I have been in this very situation many times, and have yet to get in a fight. I have a couple of hot headed acquaintances that can’t seem to avoid a fight when this happens, one (happened in his 30s) gets to take his teeth out now when he sleeps as he learned what a curb sandwich is.
Our cities belong to the mobs now. There is no “justice” just “just us”. Forget right and wrong. Don’t forget Tryvonne was right and Z man was wrong as far as our society is concerned.
I hope to God you do not CCW i n Ga with the mindset you claim to have. Your position of pushing a street confrontation to a deadly force confrontation because you “have rights” is exactly what the gun grabbers want to see.
If this guy had killed someone after escalating the confrontation via his remarks, he would be found guilty of manslaughter or worse.
“An armed society is a polite society” . In this instance had the victim been polite instead of aggressive when bumped, he likely would not have gotten his beatdown.
