Yeah, when they are the same basic background as me I just revert to 'F**KING A**HOLE' etc.
I would not describe myself as a racist/sexist/homophobic/prejudiced person (who would?), but I could care less about moral boundaries when someone has just put my life at serious risk and then threatens more harm upon me. They just lost all privelages of me treating them in any kind of moral fashion. Short of violence, which I am firmly against, really offensive insults (whether they be racist, sexist, homophobic, religious etc.) are all I can really do to try to hurt the person that has just hurt me. If they beat my ass so be it, I'm willing to deal with the police if I have to; I at least try to be sure there are other people around in case things get really out of hand, and this is just on my commute when I am trying to get to work safely and unharassed, trying my best to stay out of trouble. 99% of the time its taxi drivers, delivery trucks and ******** drivers from the suburbs who drive aggressively and have no idea how to drive downtown.
I consider any kind of violence to be on a completely and utterly different level than any kind of words. Sticks and stones... Some people are too fragile.
