“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”
— Buddha
Can you imagine becoming so angry at someone for telling you to be nice that you murder that person? Sounds crazy doesn’t it? Apparently, it’s not all that crazy.
On March 21, 74-year-old Serge Fournier was heard telling 25-year-old Cadesha Bishop to be nicer to passengers. Bishop had been swearing at people who were also riding the bus.
This terrible excuse of a person decided to then push this elderly man, and his walker, out of the bus as he was exiting. He fell on his head on the sidewalk which resulted in his death a month later.
The police released the footage. Warning, it is hard to watch. You will be seeing the injury that resulted in this man’s death.
Now you may be wondering, what did this upstanding citizen do once she pushed the old man out of the bus? Took her child and walked away. Yes, it’s unfortunate she has already reproduced.
Bishop was arrested in connection with the incident and faces a charge for open murder on an elderly vulnerable person.
That man’s life is over. His disabled wife will never get to see him again. Why? All because some woman decided she wanted to be a violent asshole because he spoke the truth. Be nice. You don’t need to swear and cuss at people. We’re all angry. We’re all cranky. That doesn’t give anyone the right to swear at people and cause a ruckus. Do you know why? Your feelings don’t matter. We all have to coexist in society. Don’t be an asshole and murder people for telling you to be nice.
