    People and companies put up security cameras "for safety" but it's a sign you are just accepting crime in your area and eventually, if you aren't too busy and the crime is big enough, you might report the crime to the cops. Every inch of London is on closed-circuit TV and knife crime is rampant. Cameras give a false sense of security and signal this is where crime is already happening. The phone scrolling generation will get this country set on fire while they video it for World Star or YouTube.

    Citizenship started long before video cameras. We threw it away and wonder what happened.
    The US is becoming South Africa and every city will look like Deeetroit or Kensington part of Philly.

    I would keep walking myself too. Wouldn't video, watch or anything like that just keep going. People are going to do what they want to do. I am not going to stand in the way and make myself part of that situation.

    Bemoan the lack of community these days, complain about the lack of manners and the downfall of quality drivers, then turn a blind eye to anything that doesnt affect you right at this moment?

    If you're willing to throw punches for getting cut off, maybe it's time to spend a few days at home.

    No .. I've seen smaller guys whip the big guys more than once ..
    Theres no rules in a fight .. the smarter guy always wins
    As it's the general consensus from most here .. leave it alone just keep walking .. let it go .. You either in.or out or a Karen .. being a Karen is worse that takinga beating in book

    Yes, that is true. Knowing my luck if I look too long it will be my problem and then they will both be coming at me instead. Armed with squeegees.

    So you’re standing there refueling your truck and some steering wheel holder wants to fight?
    Okay fine, I have a running fuel hose in my hand. Someone is going to have a bad day. :D
