In reality, it is best no punches were thrown. A simple thumb war could’ve very well ranked one superior to the tiff each put themselves into.
No reason to get on the OP’ case about not getting into a brawl. Sounds as ^^^^ the above poster likes to brawl, or meets to match if escalate to punch thrown. Some people don’t like to throw punches. It really hurts to get punch and to punch. Sure, you may have won the battle to who trash talking got to throwing, but, world peace. Get on to resolve that one.
I may sound like I like to brawl, but I am posting from the perspective that shit has hit the fan on full blast already. I normally walk away long before that point, but if it gets to that point, I will brawl over calling the cops any day. Bruises are preferable to warrants. The only times I've brawled were alcohol fueled, and I regretted both of them the moment I sobered up.
To me, it seems like OP avoided every possible chance to walk away, from ignoring the car and not hitting it, to walking into HT while the driver was getting out, to standing there while the driver got in his face. OP avoided many escape routes that would have settled the situation. OP wanted the brawl, but chickened out and called the cops instead. Which makes me think he's a pussy. If he walked away right away, I wouldn't fault him. If he took any of those escape routes. I would praise him, actually. But he didn't. He started shit, and had the cops end it for him because he could not.

I think the whole situation is a shame. Also the consequences of this leaked into the shroomery with tempers flaring and people being ported.
Let this serve as a reminder of how toxicity and negitivity can spread, this incident happened irl, and it spread into the shroomery. Personally think this thread should have been locked long ago but people like their popcorn

This is very much a disingenuous cop-out.
People will get their feathers ruffled over lots of things. That's why violence exists, always existed, and always will exist. Here, we're not being violent. We are discussing, sharing opinions, and occasionally getting a bit heated. You cannot separate getting heated from discussion without limiting your discussion to the weather. Even then, you'll probably get some disagreement, since meteorological forecasts are not perfect. So unless you want us to discuss the wetness of water, you will have strife.
Someone came here with a story. Why did they come here with a story? Many possible reasons. Maybe they wanted to brag. Maybe they wanted advice. Maybe they wanted commiseration. But, fundamentally, they wanted input from other people.
The fact that that input is negative was always a possibility, because the story wasn't "hey, so, today I saw some water, and it was wet!"
There have been no meaningful consequences on the shroomery. At least, I hope not. I can separate my internet life from my personal life. Heck, I can separate my different emotions by individual forum. If I could not, I would not post.
EDIT for Enlil, specifically, if he comes across this specific post, and finds issue with my last sentence: You can't possibly believe I wasn't expecting either ban. You're smart enough for that.

I’d like to think that deep down we’ll all walk away with a renewed sense of how you never know what the other person is thinking and dealing with or their nature so it’s best to lead with at least a jailhouse courtesy because we can all use a break and some people deserve a whole lot of leave alone as they say..
Sometimes things go differently. Let’s all be safe out there and try to leave it a little better than you found it.
And don’t get your ass kicked by accident..

Nothing wrong with getting your ass beat when you deserve it. I did. Drunk me is stupid. So's drunk other guy. Win some, lose some.
In retrospect, I don't regret the ass beating that happened to me, or the one I handed out. Both were for cause, though the cause was stupid (drunken argument). I'm mostly just happy the other guy didn't pull a gun, cause I (a) don't carry and (b) would be really sad if I shot someone even if I was right.
I'd probably kill myself if I killed someone in self defense. That shit ain't right, no matter the reason.

Dude speaking of asses getting beat... I got the ultimate karmatic justice last year.
I was deep in a benzo habit. I was with my physchotic ex, she was beating me while barred out and we’re parked in a town close to philly. I get pissed off and break my own rule and smack her ontop of the head a few times . Anyways a black guy (this gets so much worse I’m not racist plz) is walking down the street with 3 chicks and he sees me smacking her ontop if the head like a monkey playing bongoes.
He comes up to the cracked window as we’re yelling at eachother and says YO WHY YOU HITTING UP ON HER
Well I, being on 10+ mg of Clonazolam yelled fuck you n*g at the top of my lungs and kicked the car door open as hard as I could into his shins. What ensued was the most brutal asskicking of my life by a short buff 5’ guy. After he was done kicking me in the face on the ground and the girls managed to pull him off of me, he’s about 10ft away and I stand up, blood in my teeth and all over my face and flip him off smiling. I almost got round 2 but he was so small the women could hold him back.
I deserved that so bad. I’m alittle over 6ft btw probably looked like a fool. Good humility.

sorry im late to check in crew checking in
let me brief this post down
you're "athletic" but cant move out of the way of an oncoming car fast enough which is driving in a parking lot, so decide to violently swing your hand bag at it
when that causes a reaction from your shitty actions you cry foul play
you're happy to be part of a site that discusses things that are against the law, yet are happy to go by the book and even demand the book be thrown at others when you see fit
drop the case and learn to just mutter to yourself or in your head when you see others acting careless
you're a millenial im guessing

I mean, if you step in front of a moving vehicle, as a pedestrian, unless you're on a pedestrian crossing, then the car is not obligated, by rule or law, to slow down.
Not entirely true. In many municipalities, at least in the States, pedestrians ALWAYS have the right-of-way, even if they are breaking laws such as crossing in a crosswalk when it says 'Do Not Cross', and ESPECIALLY in a parking lot, pedestrians have right-of-way. It's pretty darned ridiculous, to be honest.
i do agree OP has blown this situation waaaaaaay out of proportion.

I don't know what state OP is in. Here in PA the driver has the right of way unless you're in a marked crosswalk.
Quote:
Pennsylvania DOT: -Motorists must yield to pedestrians crossing the street at marked and unmarked intersections BUT the pedestrian must either be within the crosswalk or affirmatively indicate an intent to cross. -Every pedestrian crossing a roadway at any point other than within a crosswalk at an intersection or any marked crosswalk shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles upon the roadway. -Pedestrians shall not suddenly leave a curb or other place of safety and walk or run into the path of a vehicle which is so close as to constitute a hazard.
Let this thing go. Drop the charges. The only thing injured was your ego and sense of entitlement.
You suffered no actual harm. What is there to gain by dragging this guy through the legal system? You want him to "learn a lesson". You are the one who needs to learn from this situation.

You're a little bitch that can't handle his own shit and calls the cops at any slight provocation.
Then acts tough online.
Pussy.
I was wrong earlier, when I said I hope I never have the misfortune to brush up against you accidentally. I hope I never have the misfortune to walk near you accidentally, because you might take that as an aggressive action and press assault charges. Man, you should take a hard look at that meme you posted about letting the jimmies rustle, because you're flipping out over some shit that wouldn't even rustle mine. Or any other normal person's. Fuck man, at this point I half wish the dude ran you the fuck over to remove you from the gene pool.
Hahaha thanks for the laugh.  You obviously don't know what "assault" means. Keep talking, you obviously need to get some emotions out. I'm here for you.

It's nice to see some one post in this thread with some common sense, so thank you. I agree, the fact that I didn't choose to hit the guy back is something I'm happy with. It's best to not get violent for sure.

True, because I don't put myself in situations where the cops would need to be called on me.

I live in NC. As far as I know, all those laws you just posted apply to NC, too. Nope, not dropping the charges. The guy shouldn't have assaulted me if he didn't want to get charges.

What makes you think this guy isn't out assaulting other people? Beating his wife and kids? If a grown man can act like this in public, who knows what he's capable of. If nothing else, this is what the law is for.
