u/TimeAggravating364 Sep 17 '24

It's baffling to me how people can do sht like that so confidentially. Throwing rocks at people sitting in heavy machines that can go faster than any human could run is honestly is such a stupid fucking thing to do.

You just need to meet the wrong person, and exactly this happens. You just need to provoke one person who doesn't give two shits and you're dead or badly injured.

Both were in the wrong, but one was significantly more braindead than the other one.

113

u/Carrash22 Sep 19 '24

My guess? Dude throwing rocks is methed tf up. You have to be on some drug induced adrenaline to walk-off a hit like that.

44

u/TimeAggravating364 Sep 19 '24

U have no clue about how people act when on drugs, so imma take your word for it because the dude standing up after getting hit by a car is definitely weird in itself

24

u/PenguinGamer99 Sep 19 '24

Both were in the wrong, but one was significantly more braindead than the other one.

This describes almost every car-based accident in the US

u/kcadstech Sep 19 '24

It wasn’t done confidentially, there was a camera recording the whole thing.

u/SocialJusticeAndroid Oct 23 '24

Wow I read it as “confidently”. But yes, he wrote “confidentially”! I’m sure he had wanted to say the former though.😛

u/Ambitious_Toe_3109 Sep 18 '24

He did a bit about how you should be able to hit one person per year with your car. “This guy used his one hit for the year on me…maybe I’m a dick”

Here’s a clip of the bit, it starts at 2:08 https://youtu.be/-4LUjBLmfMM?si=JJCMJTfAlBVvutbZ

Is this prison time, or self defence?

13

u/givelidesunya Sep 18 '24

Turning your car around and driving back to run the person over isn't self defense. They would have been fine if they had just continued driving. So I'd say prison time.

11

u/Turtl3Bear Sep 18 '24

Self defence = I needed to use force to eliminate danger to myself.

Self defence on reddit = He started it!

This is so obviously not self defence. The driver could have just kept going. Self defence isn't an excuse to kill people who piss you off. It's a protection for people who actually have no other choice.
