I'm not getting the feeling this was a planned or intentional attack though?

It wasn’t, redditors just have major hard-ons for “justice” even when something was far from intentional.

Some jurisdictions use the word manslaughter for the crime we often call second degree murder. They can be interchangeable.

I am not sure about this specific charge but it is possible that is what is happening.

Maybe he will say “hey, that’s a cool gun!” And let you live another five minutes while you explain it to him.

Gun isn’t going to help you at all in a situation like this. You likely won’t even see the dude coming until it’s far too late.

Nah they will to a flip off the hood of the car and while performing the flip fire two shots into the engine block to stop the car. Of course they barely stick the landing though cause nobody is perfect and flips are hard

From the url it seems like if your comment was in response to a post about that incident it would have been less invalid.

Thanks for proving my point. Driver hits cyclist and in retaliation another cyclist shoots driver. Didn’t stop the cyclist from getting hit.

Nothing about this changed in the 2nd article.

Demonstrably false, according to the article. The driver not hitting him was why he was able to shoot in the first place.

> He stopped... others from being hit when the driver returned.

Demonstrably false, according to the article. There were no others with them.

Bro, bullets do not have enough momentum to stop a vehicle. You generally can’t shoot a crash away.

No, he's carrying the ridiculous gun from the Joker except it's a railgun powered by fairy dust and he's not just stopping the car but launching himself and his bicycle into low earth orbit.

There are situations in which having a gun can help you. This isn't one of those situations.

It'd be a very effective (albeit expensive) skid plate I guess. I mean, if you happen to slide in the right spot.

I feel like I need to carry just when crossing the street in the cross walk as a pedestrian. Some of these motherfuckers drive like they have a license to kill.

Yeah, your gun will really stop a car. You do realize if you start shooting/threatening at someone, I'd be betting they'd want to run you down irregardless for their own safety. I wouldn't blame them either, there's not many scenarios where introducing a gun actually helps your safety. Especially when you're so sure of yourself, you seem like the type of person to flash a gun because someone cut you off.
