I read that, too. But...um...I don't think that's how that works. A midget family is predisposed to having midget children. But it's not guaranteed.

But a deaf man and a deaf woman having deaf babies? Is that even likely?

yes 50% of congenital deafness is caused by hereditary conditions, if both parent's have bad genes and depending on the hereditary condition there's up to a 100% chance of passing it on.
 
Seems like the driver was impatient and needs to be prosecuted. We didn't get to see the entire incident unfold but from what I've read, the driver was honking his horn and revving his engine long before someone started to film.

Which means the idiots were blocking the street and essentially illegally holding him against his will long before someone started to film. Everyone in that street blocking traffic needs to be prosecuted for breaking about 20 laws.

Troll. The crowd was there long before he was. No one started walking up to his car until he started to incite an incident by revving his engine and honking at the crowd. This Zombie event coincides with Comic Con, well known events. Do tailgaters deserve to get ran over at football games? What about basketball fans? Stop being an idiot.

I can do nothing but LOL at people who don't understand that streets are for cars. Not retarded hipster zombie enthusiasts.

You planned/attended a [stupid] event that marched you down busy streets without proper road closures and/or a mobile police escort/traffic control of any kind.

You got hit by a car.

WHAT DID WE LEARN?

We learnt that you're an idiot who probably fantasises about being allowed to hit women.
 
If I see the driver beginning to rage, I'm not going to "stand my ground" regardless of who is right or wrong. Better to get out of the way with life and limb intact.

So it's A-OK to block traffic as long as it's a "well-known" event. Banging on the hood of their car is kosher too! :thumbsup:

ROFLMAO. So much epic fail you can't possibly be serious and you're auditioning to be the worst parody writer in the history of the Onion, right? Right? That just has to be a joke. Nobody could be that stupid. Streets are not first come first served. If the street is not officially closed by permit and by law then the people in it are there illegally and the car attempting to drive on said street is acting lawfully. Simply being in the vicinity of an event does not make a PUBLIC ROAD the property of that event no matter how many geeks they have.

Try to get this through your head moron. Tailgaters DO NOT tailgate in the middle of public roads. Hell, they can't even tailgate in the driving lanes of parking lots. They obey the law and do not block the right of way for cars that are legally driving on an OPEN road. Perhaps pretend zombies could show the same common sense. And perhaps you could show a little yourself.

The driver made the first move by using his vehicle to inch into the crowd. The other driver (in the SUV) in the video made no aggressive movements like that and the crowd didn't bother him.

Where did you learn to drive? Pedestrians always have the right of way, especially at a stop sign. This isn't jay walking on a 60mph freeway. Can you be even more stupid? I get that it's annoying to have to wait but you can't just run over a pedestrian. Next time someone's in front of you at a stop sign, just run them over and make sure to record the event. By all means, prove me wrong.

lol, now I know that you're a troll. I bring up tailgaters because you made the claim that the Zombie Walkers where "illegally detaining him against his will". How stupid does that sound? That's how I know you're a troll. Yes, Tailgaters don't sit in the middle of the road but I bring it up because we all know at large football and basketball games, not every road can be blocked off. There are always a few roads with pedestrians crossing. Are you suppose to run them over? You're obviously being a troll, unless you are just that stupid.

The thing is, when people aren't intentionally blocking the intersection, they have sense enough to walk around the car and go about their business.
 
mixed feelings on this. The driver shouldn't have laid on the horn and inched his way in. he just sparked the crowd to act the way they did. Though they were banging on on the car and refused to get out of the road. I can't say i blame the driver for going once they started that.

seems like the comic-con should have had police or such in the area.
 
I probably would have done the the same thing. I have no patience for people blocking the road indefinitely. I'm not sure what I would have done once the crowd got violent though. Obviously my thought that they would get out of the way would be wrong.
The smartest thing to do would have probably been to roll down the window and ask people to move.
