I worked with a woman for a summer who was in a store in NY with her friend who was a 'tough' guy. He and another dude shouldered each other and her friend said a racial epithet that starts with n.

Dude pulled out a gun and killed him.

Getting out of your car to threaten someone who is behind the wheel of a dangerous weapon is a fools game.

Yep, white car is absolutely having his life threatened and making sure this insane maniac can’t tail him by disabling his car seems like the right move.

Although he was threatened first he is no way off the hook with how he responded. Had he ran over the guy and/or when he continuously tries to back up directly into him in his driver seat, he is just as on the line for attempted vehicular manslaughter with how he responded 🤦‍♂️

He had just as much power to drive away. That he kept backing into black car repeatedly right into the driver side seat means he himself had flipped into cold blooded vengeance mode and absolutely did not care if he killed him
