• A few years back it snowed in Seattle, which is uncommon. I saw a video where folks were having a snowball fight, as you do. A snowball entered the partially open window of a driver. The lady proceeded to Hop the curb, and drive up some embankments trying to hit people with her car.

    For a fuckin snowball.

      Guy I know was in his car when it was hit by kids having a snowball fight. So he drove straight at them onto the pavement, trapped them in a shop doorway and cracked their heads together before heading in his way. There was an article in the local paper about the police looking for him because one of the kids suffered a broken jaw. He still feels that it was a justifiable course of action .

        That guy is a fuckin menace, and a liar to boot. If he really thought he was justified he’d have turned himself in to the police, but he knew what he did was wrong even if he will never admit it to anyone including himself.

          The dude is an asshole, but this is bad legal advice. Never talk to the cops directly. Always go through your lawyer.

            Yes, I - a not-lawyer - am dispensing legal advice on this internet forum post. Fine work identifying it as such, detective; I’ll see you back at the law factory.

          Yes and yes. I am frequently shocked at the things he will admit to doing.
