My Social Conscience

I was walking along and bumped into a little guy on the sidewalk, yesterday. I don't know if it was my fault or his, but I went ahead and said, "excuse me". He said, "Watch where you are going, dammit". I replied, "Hey, I said I was sorry". He retorted with a sneer, "I don't care".

I thought to myself, "what could bring a person to be so rude?" "Were the choices in his life all wrong, and his anger just a manifestation of his displeasure?" "Did he deserve compassion for his plight?" "Did he deserve pity."

But then I realized he was a lot smaller than me, so I beat the shit out of the little fag.
