To the old man who decided that whatever the car in front of you did, it was worth running a red light so that you could catch him at the next one, you got out of your car in the middle of the street, holding up traffic so that you could bang on his window and yell at him, well you made yourself look like the asshole in the situation. Everyone else was mad because you decided to waste our time by stopping in the middle of the street in downtown Halifax so you could bitch someone out. And to top it all off, it was Easter Sunday and you had a Jesus fish on your car. I’m sure whatever you had to say to the guy was very Christian like, and made Jesus smile.

in triplicate..wow you must have really wanted to get this off your chest.
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!
Why is it that sometimes bitches get posted more than once, and then are left that way? Can’t Andy or Tim take them down?
I don’t know about around here in Nova Scotia, but in England, the minute you get out of your car, it is automatically a Road Rage case. Doesn’t matter how much of a dick you think the other driver is/was, the mere fact that you are getting out of your car means it can be thrown back on you as a Road Rage case, especially if you go up and pound on the guys windows. Is it really worth getting a ticket because someone did a fucking stupid driving move that you didn’t agree with? The laws stance is probably take down as much info as possible, ie license plate, make, model, colour, time and place of offence and report it. If the police receive several complaints they are obligated to investigate. That all being said, yeah I’d probably chase the cunt down as well if I thought waranted, but I would like to think I wouldn’t do it at the expense of the safety of any passengers I might have, or other drivers in vehicles around me. Funny thing is, well it’s not actually funny, but you have to be careful whose window you run up to and start pounding on….I mean, whose to say the arsehole isn’t someone who hasn’t just pulled an armed robery and is driving erratically because he/she is trying to get away, or is all cracked up, and when they see you running up to their car, they figure the jig is up and would rather pull a gun and shoot your ass, then stop and listen to what you thought of their driving abilities?
Re: Multiple postings: on some browsers, once someone posts, they return to a cached screen, and it doesn’t look like they posted anything. So they post again. And again. It’s a glitch our army of developers is hard at work on. Re: this bitch. The Christian fish freak out — that might be annoying, but all those things coming together makes for one great story.
Last week this guy went ape shit on this guy parked on SGR. He RAN across the street and started banging on his windows yelling “YOU CAME THIS CLOSE TO HITTING ME!” over and over and yelled at people walking by “HE CAME THIS CLOSE TO HITTING ME!” and ran down the street telling people “HE CAME THIS CLOSE TO HITTING ME!”
If I was the guy in the parked car I would’ve either a) shat myself or b) made sure I got the crazy fuck this time.
Ahh, the Jesus Fish…preach love, practice hate.
good thing It was a Christian armed with the road rage, and not a rocket launcher weilding muslim extremist or a buddhist armed with karma.. Wait a sec, maby it was a darwin fish…..
“I don’t know about around here in Nova Scotia, but in England, the minute you get out of your car, it is automatically a Road Rage case.”
And in England, the minute you take a picture of a police officer, you are a terrorist. England is a police state if you haven’t noticed… I don’t see what your point is.
Take the guys license plate and report him to the police. I’m sure this isn’t the first time this guy has done this.
it’s ok, Jebus will forgive him.
Jimmy D – what do you base your statement that England is a police state on?
It’s the same the whole world over; there are good drivers and there are people who should not be driving because they are morons!
I like the fact that this was an Easter happening – maybe it wasn’t really a rager it was Judas Iscariot trying to get to Timmies before they closed……
