No. I'm NOT a nice guy. Shit, I'm NOT a VERY nice guy. If you insult my gf and publicly shame her based on utter and absolute lies, I'll have no mercy for you when you break your leg. I don't need to rise above anything. I'll tell you that you're a shitty person because you are a shitty person.
It's not like you can insult ppl's family and then if you break your leg they're supposed to go soft on you and show concern and pity "regardless of what you'd done or said".
What if I told you that I would slaughter your mother, father, family and friends - anyone dear to you. That I'd hunt them all down and kill them one by one. And then I broke my leg. Would you forgive me because my leg is broken?? Or would you still want me dead or in jail so your family was safe?
The idea of forgiving a man or "rising above whatever he may have done or said" because he broke his fucking leg is asinine.
Forgiveness comes from remorse and repentance and apology. And even THEN it MAY not come. But it MAY. Breaking your leg means fuck all. Dustin probably wanted to break a whole lot more shit on that asshole like any man would in that circumstance.
You earn forgiveness and respect. You don't break your leg and auto-receive it. I suppose if Hitler or Pol Pot broke their leg nobody in the world would remember them as inhuman monsters?
Life doesn't work that way. Thank god.
