Road rage slugfest

[the truth]

https://www.castanet.net/edition/news-s ... htm#197229 wow, old man held his own with the a hole younger male

[jimmy4321]

Assuming this thing just began when recording started, the oldtimer looks to be the first to leave his vehicle and attack the younger guy. Regardless of what got them to this point in terms of getting them both fired up or whatever if what i see is all that happened in terms of fighting , the older guy is wrong.

[Barney Google]

Even though I would and have never engaged in acts like this I can honestly say I've sure felt like it at times...lol

Is it just me or is anyone else noticing in the last week or so are people in Kelowna driving like exceptionally stupid morons?

Edited to add:

Yeah, yeah blame the old guy...

[JayByrd]

It looked like the younger guy stomped the old guy's glasses toward the end. That made me laugh.

Never, never, never get out of your vehicle in these situations. Nothing good will come of it.

After some cheap shots through an open window the older guy pulled the younger one out. There would be no win for the younger guy if he had defended himself properly, clearly he resisted exiting the vehicle.
Imagine that headline Lol

Well, he's old. And rich - Land Cruisers are usually something wealthy people (or people that pretend to be wealthy) drive.

As always -- without exception -- there are two sides to every story.

The young guy was posting on Facebook today, and apparently purposely blocked the older guy in his parking spot with his car. When the old guy finally got out, he pulled alongside the young guy and gave him a piece of his mind. The young guy claims the older guy was being racist -- the older guy denies this emphatically. The young guy then used some pretty terrible language about the older guys wife, and spit at them. At this point, the older guy blew his cork, and the fight was on.

The young guy made some extremely racist comments about the older guy. From the tone of the posts, I tend to believe the older guy -- but full disclosure -- I'm an old bugger myself, and probably would have come unglued too, if someone called my wife what this guy did, and spit at us.

Interesting. I've heard a lot of racist cards being pulled over the years by those that haven't a clue what they are talking about. I don't agree with the senior coming unglued like that but I can understand why. Obviously so did others. No one is being charged.

[perspicacious]

Disgraceful behaviour on both sides. Grown men unable to control themselves, who knows how many children resided in vehicles nearby and witnessed this poor judgement and how frightening this would have appeared to them. It doesn't matter what led to the supposed road rage, it's a pretty sad display to see a man clearly that should know better and people wonder why there is such a lack of respect amongst the generations going both ways.

[maryjane48]
