At this point, I should just step away. Relayer, I don't know you. I really do not think that you went up to this guy to start a fight.

But I think that that was what that guy thought.

Over the internet we cannot do a great job of interjecting pauses and tones, so often our meanings are mistaken. Sometimes, the same is true when we are having a conversation with a person we do not know. They have no experience with our unique way of talking.

One does not have to say anything outwardly vicious or crude to start a fight.

Frankly, it is all so fresh and raw, that it was simply not time to make the peace. It WAS time for celebration and gloating. I am not saying that was what you were doing, but I believe that was how it was taken by the other party.

I wish you would step back and try to see it from the other guy's point of view and just wonder if maybe that was what was going on.

It sounds like Joe's body count is up to four at this point. My my, but the vet who owns the park must not worry at all about lawsuits if 1, the dog has caused serious injuries to a number of dogs, and 2, he is still allowing the dog to mingle with the general population. Somehow it sounds like the whole story is unknown to all parties involved.
