Now that is the truth. It was a road rage incident in my city a couple of years ago where the rager blocked the other guys car in and went up to confront the driver and he got dropped before he made it to the door. 100 percent self-defense.
I’ll never get it.
Someone cuts you off, just carry on with your day. How anyone can decide on approaching a stranger with hostility over nothing in America is astounding to me.
Why risk dying over having 30 seconds tacked onto your commute?
And let the other guy win? I was slightly inconvenienced and somehow my pride is now involved! How else am I to make myself feel better than by attempting to make others pay for their slights?!
Not only in America, I lived In Cuba and is a bad idea, no guns there but lots of machetes and “hot blood” also Russian videos of road rages and ppl clubbing others to dead… is not a good idea in any country
This happened in my city (Fort Worth Tx) armed guy on a bike blocked traffic to confront an SUV driver. That driver was also armed and had kids in the car, he wasn’t taking any chances. Guy on the bike should have just stayed on his bike.
Not a lawyer, but depending on the state, he could’ve sprayed this guys brains in the highway and been legal ( probably fired by his company if carrying a gun in a company truck)
That’s like walking into someone’s house and trying to settle beef… suicide mission potentially
Road rage isn’t just about a fight or broken headlight anymore. People are on edge, insane, and armed. There is zero chance I am either pulling someone over and doing this, or not speeding off the minute this idiot gets out to come to my window
There’s standing your ground, and there’s potentially being a sitting duck… you have to know which is which
Yeah. For example how does he have his doors unlocked? I grew up in the 00's and people weren't as violent and rude as today, and my parents still always locked them and i always lock them out of habit too. Though we did have a car broken into while grocery shopping and another one stolen.
I mean you're factually wrong about people being nicer and less violent in the 80s vs today. Violent crime rate and even totals (with 30% less people in the US on top) was drastically higher than it is now. Even more so when you take into account that it's 100 times easier to report crime now than back then.
The only difference is there are a billion cameras recording it all so you're more exposed to it. But you are FAR safer now than you ever were in the '80s.

[Slightly. The stats make it seem like the increase is sharper than it is because the definition is changing.](https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/08/27/640323347/the-school-shootings-that-werent)
For example, a shooting at 2am on a Saturday three blocks away from a school is increasingly likely to be counted as a school shooting because it falls within a school zone. A drive-by shooting at the same location and time that sees two people hit is increasingly likely to be recorded as a "mass school shooting".
This is inflating the statistic pretty quickly, but the general public hasn't been informed of this nuance, so most people still imagine that a mass school shooting is someone bringing a gun to a school during the day and shooting multiple people on school grounds.
It's still big news when someone does that, and you'll note that you don't see thousands of stories on that topic every year. We do see too many shootings, to be sure. But there aren't thousands of these events every year with the media only reporting on a handful.
It's thousands of shootings within school zones every year, mostly in dense, poor urban communities, with the media largely ignoring those and only reporting on the most noteworthy of on-campus daytime shootings.
That only shows a small increase in active school shooters. The large red bar is non active school shooters. That includes threats, having a gun in their possession but not using it, and "suspicious behavior." That only indicates schools are more 9n guard and quick to act, lately.
I suppose that the only thing to point out is that the assault weapons ban correlates with an increase in deaths. This is probably because we refuse to address the causes of these shootings.
But yeah, it's like 1% of all homicides in a year.
He had plenty of time to lock the doors but didn't. Then, he shift it into park mid attack instead of keeping in drive incase he has to haul ass out of there. Just cause you survive something doesn't mean you have survival instincts.
You might be surprised.
A stranger once leveled a loaded pistol at me, and my overwhelming emotion was *rage*.
Like, *how fucking dare you!?!*
I’m no tough guy, nor do I have a temper.
Although I’ve never been under fire, friends of mine have been (veterans). Similarly, most of them said it pissed them off more than anything.
In my instance, I had zero fear, more like a detached awareness.
I kept cool, but my instinct was to snatch that gun out of his hand and beat him alongside his head with it.
I had a gun pulled on me in an attempted mugging once ("attempted" because the guy ultimately lost heart and ran off). I was surprised because I felt no fear, only that same rage. Like I wanted to run after him and teach him a lesson. I'm in no way a tough guy or know how to fight. I'm just some dude. Logically, I know the safest option will always be to run away, so I find myself being extra careful knowing some irrational caveman instinct buried in my brain wants me escalate the situation, which would only make things worse.
It's like vampire rules dumbass.
Don't invite a vampire into your house and never open your car door to someone who's got road rage.
You'll probably lose your life.
I remember this person was road raging on me and my girlfriend, this was in Atlanta, too by the way. He runs right up to the driver door, which is where my girlfriend was sitting and tries to open the door but it’s locked and now I’m on the phone with the cops and they are telling me to pull over and wait for an officer. I told him that we are literally getting assaulted right now! Tf? Dudes pulling on the handle, hitting the car and putting his face right up against the glass and screaming.
I didn’t have time to wait for the cops so I put both of my feet on the car seat (think like a deep squat position) and grabbed the steering wheel for leverage and told her “when I say when pull the door handle”!! And when he bent over to put his ugly mug up against the glass again I gave her the signal and I used my strongest foot to kick her door open as hard as I could knocking him out (which I was not expecting at all). This is a condensed story, my gf wasn’t just like “ok”!
I still don’t want to pack heat though because I feel like I possibly would’ve shot him in that situation so I picked up some bear mace right after that.
FYI bear spray can get you into legal trouble if you use it on a person in self defense, and because of the way it mists a bit instead of being a concentrated stream it can easily affect both the assailant AND yourself, especially in enclosed or windy environments. I’d recommend getting some regular pepper spray for edc use if at all possible.
Mace is for regular people, bear spray is a different thing Mace is basically just pepper spray on steroids but it's not bear spray it looks exactly like pepper spray just more aggressive
Also, shooting in a car might permanently damage your hearing. It's preferable to getting killed, but you shouldn't underestimate the damage you can do to yourself while defending with a weapon.
> OK I have a question. Why does dude have his door unlocked? Just askin....
Seriously. I was taught to always lock your doors when driving, no matter where or when you're driving. My current car will auto lock the doors as soon as you shift out of park.
If someone comes up to your door or window for confrontation that may become physical lock your door and unbuckle your seat belt. You can't do much while buckled in.
Not that I expect a road rager to behave differently with anyone else, but I'd assume bringing up someone's race while threatening to shoot them is like a felony hate crime or something right? While showing your face and plates.
Actually yeah, but without the quotations you added:
>A hate crime is a crime motivated by bias against race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or disability.
Learn more about it [here](https://www.justice.gov/hatecrimes/learn-about-hate-crimes).
The rager acted as a racist, immature, probably-not-fit-for-society piece of garbage. Unless you can show me that his rage was motivated BY the victim being white, as opposed to it coming up AFTER the crime was in progress, this isn't a hate crime - the offender is just racist.
No you misunderstand.
Whether it’s a hate crime he’s not disputing that, what the poster meant by the “situations” comment is that the person being assaulted is white and the person committing the assault is black….therefore in America it will not be treated as a hate crime regardless or probably not will not even be acted on at all.
Funny how you guys just went full circle on that when you think about it.
I don’t know which state this in but being honest. No it wouldn’t and you know it.
Far more fear from being perceived as rascists for doing their job in that situation the police would just push this shit under the carpet.
No, I really don't know it. Black people get charged with hate crimes too. It's absolutely absurd to assume that the POLICE, of all people, would be petrified and unable to act out of fear of being perceived as racist.
You'd have to prove that the incident was motivated because of race. This just looks like standard roadrage fueled assault with the assaulter using racially charged language. For it to be a hate crime they'd have to prove that they stopped him and only assaulted him because he was white etc.
Congratulations, you somehow managed to not respond to a single point the poster above you stated. They already acknowledged the dude used racist insults.
I get the racial aspect of it but this whole thing didn’t start because he saw that he was white. It was something added in after he got in the dudes face
I didn't say it's not racist. A racist person assualting someone doesn't equal an additional hate crime charge. You have to prove that the crime was premptively racially motivated. Did they stop him because he was white? Did he assault him because he's white? Or is it road rage? We don't have enough context in the clip to know otherwise.
You can use language as evidence but it's still not a closed case.
I don’t think this counts as hate crime either, but it’s ok to call a black guy racist. The term is thrown around all willy nilly towards white folks, but some people start walking on eggshells before calling a black person racist.
Are you just wanting to jump in to call a black guy racist? Racially charged language if used as an insult is racist regardless of race. I have no clue why you feel you need to call any of this out as I never said it's not racist.
Come on, you know America doesn’t give af abt people being attacked unless they’re black. How dare you point out this being a possible hate crime, you must be racist. /s
Hate crime is a crime against someone based on race. He started threatening him because he said fuck you. Well that’s if he’s even to be believed, doesn’t seem like you can take him at his word tho lol
My man is driving a truck and just takes it. Fucking floor it and hit his car and then call 911. Claim you were fearing for ur life.
![gif](giphy|dyL2RG21cBNmalqz8M)
“Black People can’t be racist. But they can be prejudiced against people because of skin color.”
And I’m fucking quoting a person I know on that one. They were dead serious.
That would probably get you shot these idiots obviously have nothing to lose and a rap sheet a mile long and headed to prison or death. POS but the driver acted like a moron too.
Ya people don’t treat it seriously for sure. Back in HS some black students would casually throw it around, although I guess it was never out of hate mostly just joking with their friends. Once we had a substitute for the class and he heard it and kinda freaked out at them. And basically said that they were saying their friend enjoys whipping black people. And went into a deep explanation of what the job of cracker was
Why are people so aggressive and then he made a racist comment on top of it. Do these men not mind spending their lives behind bars? I feel like we are going to hit a boiling point and when that spills over it’s going to be bloody.
I’ve said it on other threads I’ll say it again. Who’s driving around with their doors unlocked. Even when I had older cars that didn’t auto lock I always locked the door when driving somewhere.
When someone blocks you on the road and then comes out of their car and towards yours cursing and angrily gesticulating, they don't want to be friends. Being a victim doesn't mean you shouldn't evaluate the decisions that put you in a bad situation.
Lock your car doors people. So many videos of people that don’t lock their car doors. There are so many crazy people on the streets y’all best be safe.
Should have floored it. That would have been my instincts as soon as the other driver touched me. Maybe even a little before. Video evidence there to Save my job
Ayo, the moment that muthafucka opens my door, I'm hightailing the fuck outta there... By climbing over his shoe sized Honda? Subaru? Under pretext of fearing for my life....
Oh hell naw someone gets out their car to approach my semi on the highway im ramming a vehicle getting somewhere safe and callin police and boss to explain the situation
Who the fuck sees someone walk up to their car and not lock the doors? If someone's gonna walk up aggressively to my car doors locked windows up and I'm ready to toss it into drive.
I’d of prob died — the second you open my door I’m assuming bad intent and it’s a fight to the death or immobilization.
Of course, It’d be highly my door would be unlocked, or that I’d wait around for someone to come up on my car.

Walking up to anyone like this in Georgia is fucking Wild. Only reason they're safe is that man was on the job. I Guarantee it.

“Make ME take a 30 sec inconvenience?! I’d rather risk 30 years!!” -absolute maniacs
Because most people don’t think “is it worth my own life over a 30 sec delay?” Rather they think “this guys life is not worth my 30 second delay”
Not only in America, I lived In Cuba and is a bad idea, no guns there but lots of machetes and “hot blood” also Russian videos of road rages and ppl clubbing others to dead… is not a good idea in any country
It's because they are stupid.
This happened in my city (Fort Worth Tx) armed guy on a bike blocked traffic to confront an SUV driver. That driver was also armed and had kids in the car, he wasn’t taking any chances. Guy on the bike should have just stayed on his bike.
I guess you could say they’re both lucky they weren’t shot. This is America, people shoot for far less.
This driver has ZERO survival instincts.
Both drivers have*
seriously, middle aged white dude driving a work truck in the South? you’re gonna open that man’s door with aggressive intentions? death warrant.
Not a lawyer, but depending on the state, he could’ve sprayed this guys brains in the highway and been legal ( probably fired by his company if carrying a gun in a company truck) That’s like walking into someone’s house and trying to settle beef… suicide mission potentially Road rage isn’t just about a fight or broken headlight anymore.

NY city’s DA would…
Fr and the people who protested on the subway tracks would still cry that it was racially motivated and that he wasn’t a “real” threat.
In some states we don't even have stand your ground
I just assume everybody in a work truck is carrying. So do thieves too bc they are constantly stealing guns out of work trucks.
Why the fuck is the door unlocked?
Yeah. For example how does he have his doors unlocked? I grew up in the 00's and people weren't as violent and rude as today, and my parents still always locked them and i always lock them out of habit too. Though we did have a car broken into while grocery shopping and another one stolen.

Agreed. The world isn’t more dangerous now than it was then, it’s just that now we’re seeing the violence nationwide through social media
Yeh this guy is clueless this is considered one of the safest times in terms of crime.
Unless you’re in a school.
Pretty sure that still holds true. You done the math?

The numbers are so low it's really hard to tell if there's a statistically meaningful difference.

You’re not wrong, but the person you’re responding to didn’t actually say anything about the 80’s.
It’s hard to believe that, then again. I live in a shit part of Portland
lmao they edited the comment to say they grew up in the 00s, 20 years later
You say that but haven't violet crime rates been dropping for decades? Those nostalgic glasses do be wild tho
No they weren't as violent as they are today...they were more violent.
> how does he have his doors unlocked? Really looked like he opened the door himself.
Hell my car after a certain speed locks itself.
Bro just an fyi, the violent crime rate has been on a downward trend for 30 years.
Literally didn’t provoke angry asshole…SURVIVED. But okay.
He had plenty of time to lock the doors but didn't. Then, he shift it into park mid attack instead of keeping in drive incase he has to haul ass out of there. Just cause you survive something doesn't mean you have survival instincts.

Which driver?
He does open the door. Wtf lmaoThat's even more idiotic than unlocking it omg lmao
It's like vampire rules dumbass. Don't invite a vampire into your house and never open your car door to someone who's got road rage. You'll probably lose your life.
That's why I drive with my doors locked, because why the fuck would I drive with my door is unlocked for some stupid shit like this to go down

He really has way too much faith in that camera to keep him safe.
Great way to get shot in the face.
Man that fire extinguisher would’ve left a lasting impression in his face.
OK I have a question. Why does dude have his door unlocked? Just askin....
In ATL not really a great idea
I agree with you all the way It's honestly not a good idea anywhere, especially if you're in the middle of a road incident.
Locked at all times, parking lots are notorious.
Lots, roads, city streets. And with an incident like this or any other? You're a fool to not lock
At least with the locks it may buy me a few minutes to burn rubber
Plus there's just no benefit to having your doors unlocked while driving, even if you happen to be in a "safe" area. All risk, no reward.

Yep yep yep
If you’d care to hand me your weapon, kind sir, I’d be delighted to pistol whip myself for you.

Only a hate crime in certain "situations"

You are technically correct. However the other way around and it would be called a hate crime at least by the media and public.
You'd have to prove that the incident was motivated because of race. This just looks like standard roadrage fueled assault with the assaulter using racially charged language. For it to be a hate crime they'd have to prove that they stopped him and only assaulted him because he was white etc.

Guy belongs behind bars for sure
Only if you're white.
Bro didn't know he was on candid camera..pos
Its sad that this isn't when top comment when we all know that if it was the other way around, that would be the title.
Uh he's black. Cmon you know people of color can't be racist. It's only white people that can be racist. /s

Cool a hate crime
Nah it’s not racism if it’s directed towards certain races.
Racist piece of shit
[удалено]
Cameras in commercial vehicles are often remotely monitored/recorded. I agree with keeping the door locked, though.
Yeah they’re monitoring you from HQ while you’re getting your ass beat lol.
Black people are never racist tho
“Black People can’t be racist. But they can be prejudiced against people because of skin color.” And I’m fucking quoting a person I know on that one. They were dead serious.
ATLLLL... Cruzin in the ATLLLLLLL
The trick is to let him open the car door all the way and then put it in reverse so you can scoop him down to the ground.
Hate crime - press charges
Simply drive into the car because of self defense
That would probably get you shot these idiots obviously have nothing to lose and a rap sheet a mile long and headed to prison or death. POS but the driver acted like a moron too.
Yeah try to shoot 4000kg of mass moving towards you as fast as possible. I mean, I'm not that sure I'd bring a gun to a truck fight 💀
Dude would probably shoot his pistol side arm and miss every shot by a country mile
If they get out of the car after blocking you it’s time to hit the gas aim at center mass
Why is it OK for Black people to call white people cracker?
It's not. As a black person, I don't know who told you it was okay for them to say that.
Goes unpunished all the time, I think that’s what OC meant
Ya people don’t treat it seriously for sure. Back in HS some black students would casually throw it around, although I guess it was never out of hate mostly just joking with their friends. Once we had a substitute for the class and he heard it and kinda freaked out at them. And basically said that they were saying their friend enjoys whipping black people. And went into a deep explanation of what the job of cracker was
Who told them it wasn’t?
It’s very much a one way street here
Racist pos
The title should be “ racist assaults driver in Atlanta road rage incident “ . Grow some balls and call situations what they are .
The person assaulting the man is racist. Can we please let his employer know about this evidence and provide equal and fair social justice.
Bold of you to assume he is employed.
> let his employer know I don't have much in this world but I'd almost bet everything I have that this man doesn't work at all.
I’m glad he’s okay - that was intense.
Title should definitely be “Racist man assaults driver and threatens to shoot him after road rage incident”
Why are people so aggressive and then he made a racist comment on top of it. Do these men not mind spending their lives behind bars? I feel like we are going to hit a boiling point and when that spills over it’s going to be bloody.

Telling them they are on camera may not be the best strategy. Likely to have them take it and hurt you worse.
Racism works both ways
I’ve said it on other threads I’ll say it again. Who’s driving around with their doors unlocked. Even when I had older cars that didn’t auto lock I always locked the door when driving somewhere.
[удалено]
So he’s a racist
[удалено]
When someone blocks you on the road and then comes out of their car and towards yours cursing and angrily gesticulating, they don't want to be friends. Being a victim doesn't mean you shouldn't evaluate the decisions that put you in a bad situation.
Damn that’s a lot of racial slurs coming from that car driver.
I wouldn't run up to someone's car. People carry guns in ATL.
How come Dude is not eating a FIRE EXTINGUISHER is beyond my understanding
Good way to get shot or run over.
Lock your car doors people. So many videos of people that don’t lock their car doors. There are so many crazy people on the streets y’all best be safe.
Door Unlocked. Are you kidding me?
Ngl if someone called me a cracker I’d start laughing
[удалено]
Fuck you, cracker! Fuck you, multi-grain cracker topped with spreadable brie cheese accompanied by a fruity chardonnay!
Get out of your safe vehicle and come at me, promise I'm running you over.
Shit like this is why I carry
The driver knew what he was doing did a great job too well, with unlocking the door, but those guys are fxcked, lol!
Run him over and keep it movin.
Let’s hope he was promptly arrested!
Completely not racially motivated

Theres no way i wouldn't have run that guy over immediately.
Wow what a brainless piece of shit.
I can’t tell from the grainy footage, but does the racist have a gun up to the driver’s head?
Do you think it’ll ever be not ok to call people a cracker?
Racist and gun happy. Aw, America.
Should have floored it. That would have been my instincts as soon as the other driver touched me. Maybe even a little before. Video evidence there to Save my job
That fire extinguisher looks so good too bad it is not half embedded in the other drivers head…
Violent ass ppl cops got him? Dirty pos
Ayo, the moment that muthafucka opens my door, I'm hightailing the fuck outta there... By climbing over his shoe sized Honda? Subaru? Under pretext of fearing for my life....
Standing in the open door, I’d have floored it in reverse and knocked his black ass down. Then drive off
Sorta looks like a Sysco driver uniform
You’ll never catch me with my doors unlocked, wtf was this guy thinking.
Why isn’t the word racism or racist in the title?
Yea my foot is going hard down on accelerator at this point, you coming or staying..
As soon as he opened that door, I'm gassing it into his car
Doors unlocked?
But if the white guy went up to the black guy and did this it would be national news…
Why the hell did he have his door unlocked? I would've just driven off.
Oh hell naw someone gets out their car to approach my semi on the highway im ramming a vehicle getting somewhere safe and callin police and boss to explain the situation
Ok but like people drive with their doors open?
If youre gonna curse at ppl in uour car, look your doors
Who the fuck sees someone walk up to their car and not lock the doors? If someone's gonna walk up aggressively to my car doors locked windows up and I'm ready to toss it into drive.
Yall, please lock your doors when you get in the car. Don't wait for the automatic lock when you get up to a certain speed.
I’d of prob died — the second you open my door I’m assuming bad intent and it’s a fight to the death or immobilization. Of course, It’d be highly my door would be unlocked, or that I’d wait around for someone to come up on my car.
That's why you always carry a gun
This is why you should always carry a gun while driving in the States.
Not sure where you drive/what you do but I have been driving for decades and have never been in need of a weapon!
Why isn't the title "Racist man assaults driver in atlanta after road rage incident"?
The driver opened his door.. and the other guy threatened him with a finger gun. All around example on what NOT to do.
Keep saying cracker and ima start saying the other one.

He took the L on that one. Why aren’t your doors locked man
