I guarantee I'd get out of jail before either one was done with their physical therapy. Just because you *think* you occupy the moral high ground is no guarantee you'll win the fight, and the legal system doesn't act as a force field or as armor. The term crime of passion covers a whole lot of ground.

People who say that violence never solves anything are the people who never won a fight. Taking a personal issue to Management to sort out strikes me as the worst kind of passive-aggressive cowardice, and isn't to be used as a day-to-day problem solver. It's tattling. It's being a crybaby. HTFU.
