Re: Road Rage at it Best - Good Grief!
Regardless of why THIS guy was provoked, Christians have separate biblical mandates for how to react to difficult, provocative situations, and shooting people for being idiots isn't on the laundry list.
I believe we have the right to defend our lives, homes and loved ones, but beyond that--seeking revenge, especially through violent means, is decidely UNChristian.
The correct recourse for dealing with an idiot driver is to jot down their license number and call the police.

Yep...vigilante justice is illegal for a good reason and that reason is there are a LOT of idiots out there packing heat just looking for a "Provocation"

I am sorry Cindy but I have driven through TEXAS, the normal man and woman may not be idiot drivers but your state highway patrol are certainly not the best. Of course my attitude toward them could be because they pulled me over, and I know it was only because I was the out of state driver. Everyone else had a TX tag but me, we were all doing the same speed and I was the one they pulled over.

Re: Road Rage at it Best - Good Grief!
He continues to miss the part where eye witnesses also said the driver "inadvertently swerved"
I keep checking the news to find out "the rest of the story"...........
