"Throwing punches" is the stuff of school yards and has no place amongst adults. For the most part if violence is warranted it had better meet a certain set of criteria and it is best executed with lethal intent. Yes, occasionally someone needs the shit slapped out of them but that's a young man's game and best left to them. That 63 yo postal worker won't make that mistake again.

Quote HistoryQuoted:So when I see a mail delivery vehicle with its emergency lights and siren on I'm supposed to pull over until it passes and it gets to blow through red lights too? Do mail trucks have red or blue lights? I've never noticed before. 
I'm sure like all federal government agencies there are postal police with the authority to arrest and run lights and sirens ... but I don't think my local GS-5/7 mail carrier has stealth lights and siren inside that old Grumman he's driving. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I'm not turning my back on anyone. Fuck, I can't eat with my back to a door, but I will disengage with anyone who is just looking to fucking argue. Granted, I almost always have a gun, and avoid conflict at all costs, but arguing with a mailman is as stupid as fighting over a parking space at Walmart. There are just some things you don't do.

63 isn't that old in 2018. There are plenty of 63 year olds out there that could beat the shit out of you if you let them and probably some even if you didn't let them. Some people are acting like the guy killed an 90 year old invalid. Of course a guy in his 20-40s is likely quicker, stronger, and more likely to win in general but that doesn't mean someone in their 60s can't be a threat.

Witnesses told police, yeah the rest of those bum union construction workers - so we never heard the 65 year old guy's side of the story.

It doesnt matter what the circumstances or what you have to say about it. lol Mexican construction worker goes to prison and you pay the bill. Also, you seems stuck on 'beating up elderly people'. What age is the cutoff for elderly? Are there any exceptions? Is it ever okay to strike one? In self defense? What if he's armed? Oh wait, you said, "It doesnt matter what the circumstances or what you have to say about it." I'll admit the article is a little short on some critical details (I want to know who started the argument before the fight) but you seem to be making a lot of assumptions. |

let's just hope the important mail got to their destination without too much delay. Would hate that an important Amazon package not be delivered on time for Christmas.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Do you park in front of mailboxes? Rocket fucking science. When an elderly mailman doing his job tells you to unfuck yourself you dumb cocksucker! Do you argue with him, and gode him into an altercation? Then knock his lights out and kill him? He gets professional courtesy . Thats part of our civilized society. I just dont even get these fucking people on this site anymore. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted: Dude, you are all over the map. Take a break from the coke. He gets professional courtesy . Thats part of our civilized society. I just dont even get these fucking people on this site anymore. This is what a mailman is supposed to do when a mailbox is blocked and he's to lazy to get off the seat and deliver the mail, drive to the next open mailbox and continue your route. Not hard, just notate it and move on. He asked, they complied, he went full retard. My Dad could pop out 100 push ups, 100 situps, and run 5 miles at 63. He was a very tough old bird. He was in quite good shape up until he got cancer at 84 for the second time and passed away. He was back running just a bit after a month after getting out of the hospital for a broken back, pelvis, and hip due to falling over 20 foot out of a tree. He wasn't fast but he was back out on the street trying to do his normal routine. He was in his mid 70's when that happened. |
