The article never suggests any physical violence, though. The problems he reported to CBS are a "hateful sticker", "threats online", "somebody tried to cut me off" and "three guys pointing the middle finger and [...] screaming at me". Not super cool either, but they're not physical violence. Those last two might even be legal, depending on the circumstances.
For anybody curious, since the article doesn't mention what the "hateful sticker" was, from a quick search it was: "NAZIS FUCK OFF".
Seems like a good sticker!
Pretty sure the last two are not just legal, but required under MA law while merging onto any highway.
Really the bottom three, but that's just because we haven't gotten the nearly impossible to remove electrostatically charged stickers from Snow Crash yet. Soon as we get those puppies it's game on!
Heh. Deep cuts w/ Vonnegut should've been a podcast.
