Pummelling?
pummel
ˈpʌm(ə)l/
verb

1. strike repeatedly with the fists.
   "he felt like a boxer who had been pummelled mercilessly against the ropes"

Was he pummelled? He was pushed over.

He was hit with two fists to his chest and was knocked of his feet. If i were to put my hands on your chest, then push, that would qualify as a push. MM never did that, his hands were in a strong forward motion when they struck his chest.

<modsnipped- snark is not necessary>

 

[andreww]

Again, pummel means to repeatedly strike with the fists.

And don't be silly, even the cops concluded that this wasn't a push. Any idiot can see that.

Fists mean closed fist not an open handed shove and what happened to he came up from behind in a cowardly move?

 

[andreww]

Man, "idiot" and "moron" in one day. Y'all really need to check your slurs if you want to pretend to care about people with disabilities. Dang you don't even have to read anything, there are YouTube videos.

<modsnipped> I chose to believe that he's dead because he's a bully and not a very nice guy.

<modsnipped- do not bring race into the discussion>

 

[Jennifer17]

Whatever, continue to defend the criminal just because he's black. I chose to believe that he's dead because he's a bully and not a very nice guy.

And D is a nice guy? Shoving a man in cold blood is nowhere near killing a man in cold blood.

You are the one who keeps perseverating about race. Not me. Please check your assumption.

Just one question for the MD supporters or the SYG supporters.
How is it that you can defend the right of one man to protect himself but deny the other man the same right for protection.
Remember SYG is based on YOUR feeling of lack of safety or sense of danger.

I think from some of the terminology used in this thread I see which way the wind blows but curious what you will come up with. IMO

 

[flourish]

Since some seem to think I'm just sitting in my beautiful ivory tower making up stuff about the "appropriate" way to handle when people park in the handicap, a quick google search offers more.


There's an app for that!

Finally: An App To Report Drivers Illegally Parked In Handicapped Spots

Using Parking Mobility's app is easy. When you see a car that's wrongfully parked in a disabled spot, just take three quick photos with your smartphone: one of the vehicle's backside showing the make, model, and license plate; a wider one of the parking spot, showing that the vehicle is clearly parked there; and one of the car's windshield, proving that there's no disabled parking tag.

After that's done, use the app to upload the photos to Parking Mobility's database. The nonprofit will tag the time, date, and location of the photos, then submit them to the proper authorities.

How to Report Handicap Parking Abuse


Police say it's OK to report abusers of handicapped parking spots

"Calling their local law enforcement agency about handicapped violations gives them an accurate idea of what is happening in their jurisdiction,” he said. “If a particular grocery store or other retail area receives a high number of calls of handicapped or fire lane violations, it can mean their time spent citing violators will be fruitful or other crime is happening.”

The Drive: Police say it's OK to report abusers of handicapped parking spots

The first and probably only thing you could do would be to call the police. Parking in a handicap zone without the proper signage on the vehicle to show why it should be parked there is a citable offense even though the offense is on private property. It is about the only infraction offense that is allowed to be citable on private property.

Weird...in not one article did it suggest or advise acting like parking lot vigilantes and confront the person.

oh high and mighty, you who sit in high judgment from afar and deem what is "appropriate" and what isn't!

Aren't you doing the same thing?

Mother of 2 beaten over shopping cart in Walmart parking lot

There are thugs in parking lots every day....outcome is usually not death by bullet.

Whatever, continue to defend the criminal just because he's black. I chose to believe that he's dead because he's a bully and not a very nice guy.

I don't care if he's forest green or chartreuse....he was killed in cold blood in front of his family

And that is not just a pushing over.

Michael Drejka committed NO CRIME.

 

[AzPistonsGirl]

wait, so being a bully and not a very nice person is a good enough reason for someone to die? That justifies it for some?

How about some one twice your size and half your age push you with two hands so violently that you leave your feet and land on your side on hard concrete. And by the way, you did not see this person approach you, you didn't know it was coming, How would you react? Answer the question, don't evade.

 

[AzPistonsGirl]

I'd probably fall on my a$$ and cry. Would I wish that person dead? Oh my, no no no.

And be careful challenging other posters individually here. It is against TOS as I'm sure we all know. As is calling one another idiots.

That is an exaggeration on both counts.
