I make mistakes and when I do, I try to at least flash the 2 finger peace sign in an acknowledgment that I know I messed up, please forgive.
My assertion is that folks who are inconsiderate drivers are often inconsiderate drivers all the time. I admitted that I did not know this guy, but thought that he got what he probably deserved.
I said this, based off of the premise that most inconsiderate drivers are not inconsiderate just once or even twice.
Besides, I don't believe in preemptive strikes without verifiable evidence.

Well Timothy, since we are talking about someone who isn't saved, I think it is safe to say that neither me, Davidson, or anyone else on this forum would act to take vengeance on a driver who cuts us off. I think what we are trying to convey is the fact that we can sympathize with the frustration of the guy who shoots at someone else for cutting them off the road and putting their life in danger as well.

How does that justify vigilante justice?

Exactly and imagine you were in the car next to the idiot driver when the bullet the idiot suspect passes through the idiot drivers car and strikes a kid in someone elses car

It doesn't. They were starting to talk about gun ownership, and I was just making a point.

For some reason I envision the two driving down the road together in a huge 4x4 kicking back some beers and talking about how they should pop a cap in the car next to them because they are somehow more inconsiderate than they are
