https://www.instagram.com/p/COvyhm7nu8N/?utm_source=ig_embedThe bystander, identified only as Rashaad, tells WRAL he was waiting on line around 2pm at the Marathon gas station when a woman in a white Honda Accord attempted to cut into the long line, which didn't make other motorists happy. No one would let her in, which is when Rashaad started recording. "Who do y'all think is wrong," he writes in his caption for the video on Instagram, which shows the woman getting out of her carafter Rashaad says she hit a gray Honda CR-Vand spitting at a man driving the other Honda. The man can then be seen emerging from his car, walking over to her, and spitting on her, at which point the two start scuffling. At one point, the man appears to hurl the woman's cellphone into the street, and the Daily Beast reports the man's shirt ended up getting torn in the "scrappy fight," which went on until the police arrived. It's not clear if any arrests were made

(2,215 posts)and I only saw one person jump the line. He just got a small amount of gas and was gone in a flash and nobody really cared.
Everyone was exceedingly polite and friendly, but this is Virginia Beach, southside. We have every nationality and color in this part of town, and we all tend to be careful to protect the friendliness that has been cultivated in this area.
Very different from Norfolk, Newport News, even Chesapeake.

(31,261 posts)The guy that was cut off got out of his car and jerked on the door of the guy that cut him off, I believe. Then the guy stopped with the door and headed back to his car. The guy that cut him off jumped out the car with a gun and fatally shot the other guy. The kid ASSUMED that the other man was going back to his car for a gun. So a 19 year old who had a new baby should be going to jail for life, and a 34-35 year old guy who maybe had a wife and kids is dead.
There is no way that I would get into an argument with other people in this state, too many loons running around with guns itching to use them.

My family came from a part of the world where there was no such thing...They had a "latrine" and their nightly routine consisted of burning human waste.
