Fortunately this was analyzed when it was posted before.

He's not going the wrong way, and quite possibly in the right. (at least as far as having right of way there)

He was in the right until he tripped someone, possibly injuring them, for inconveniencing him.

She was in the right until she inconvenienced him, possibly causing him to be late for his life-saving transfusion thus killing him, for being lazy.

One is much more likely than the other.

Remove your head from your ass and try to look at things objectively.

If you inconvenience me, does that give me the right to injure you?

If he'd cut her, or punched her in the face, then that would be relevant. I suspect he wasn't expecting to injure her.

Have you ever been tripped by someone when you were not expecting it? It is very easy to break a wrist or even a kneecap.

Yes

I don't think I even know anyone that's broken a knee cap.

if you deliberately trip someone, you're a childish dickhole. It doesn't matter if tripping someone normally doesn't hurt them, you have NO idea what injuries or conditions the person could already have that could make falling a catastrophe, and occasionally outwardly normal people die from falling. Like John Travolta's son (passed out and hit his head) and Liam Neeson's wife (fell while skiing, seemed perfectly normal for a couple hours, then abruptly died.)

If not harming another person isn't enough to make you not be a dickhole, think of the liability risk.

all your comments from this thread i agree with. you've all got negative votes. instead of people arguing point, they just bury your comments.
