That is what flipping someone off is.
I htink you are critical of the wrong group of people in this situation.
Not only did they cut her off they could have caused an accident.
She gives a finger gesture to being cut off.
The response is to shoot at her in the car?
You appear to give legitimacy to the shooter here by saying what you said. Like she deserved such a response.
I understand being civil but driving like that gets people into accidents and escalates things, a finger back is not an unexpected or overblown response.
A simple dissing carries a death sentence in some American sub-cultures. Even for members. An outsider can expect no quarter.
I’m not giving legitimacy to anything. I’ve been the victim of road rage twice and know full well how there are some people, who are so internally hostile and out of control in their minds, that they would take your life from the smallest provocation.
You just have to ask yourself whether or not it is worth your life to flip off somebody who is willing to take your life.
This mother met such a person and now has a dead child. Was it worth it to her?
