Can't rely on public to step in and help, most people would rather film on their phone.If I bring a weapon out like the big torch or a screwdriver from the boot I'm sure they'd have done the same. Likewise if I tried to run him over in the limited space there was then I'm attempting murder.Rock and a hard place from my point of view. I'd love to have a story where I got out and KOed him with one punch then sorted his mate out too but the reality is it would be the other way around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you had the right to be pissed off from his initial actions, you escalated it by responding how you did, there are many loonies out there today and some people respond irrational and weapons are commonly used. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinr33 Donating Members 964 Member For: 13y 7m 22d Posted 19/02/13 12:12 AM Share Posted 19/02/13 12:12 AM I agree with ratter its the fight or flight scenario, if you are not used to an aggressive environment you are more likely to freeze.Unfortunately you didn't make the early decision to flee, a punch in the face isn't to bad if they are as scummy as you say wouldn't surprise me if they where carrying a concealed weapon getting stabbed is worse case scenario.These are all things that would go through my head before deciding if its worth engaging someone, these are all little things to consider you want to do this before you decide if its worth it or not.

Should you even beep though? That might be enough to set them off, if they're having a really bad day already. Just have to take the little things like that in stride and go back to enjoying your new mp3 deck and Polk speakers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pride is a tough meal to swallow but you get to go home after you eat it rather than being fed by a tube.Dealing with life-time career sh*theads is a no win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught it all in my left hand which was nice at least, and a microfibre dusting cloth I keep in the centre lid came in handy to wipe my hands.
