No Kidding.
I'm thinking he's lived an incredibly sheltered life and never has run across someone who wants to beat his arse despite his caring, sharing and understanding conversations with some scumbag.
His post is probably one of the most incredibly naïve I've ever read from a (alleged) pilot. Some people are just scum and when they are keyed up on you, no amount of Gandhi BS is going to get you out of it. Only the threat of bodily injury, jail time or death is going to change their mind once they are spun up.
I'm in my 50's and still run across this BS from scumbags very occasionally. I've either been around a lot of backup (1500lbs of buddies nearby) or just lucky I haven't got my arse beat down no matter how much peace, love and free drinks I've offered. Chit happens. Good thing, my left hook would resemble a Galapagos Tortoise going for a piece of lettuce.
