Torpedo planes, if I recall correctly. Practical AA and AS missiles didn't exist back then (unless you count unguided rockets as "missiles").

Browsing the thread, the vet supposedly called the Evo owner a racial slur, spat on him, and shoved him. The Evo owner claims that he only hit the vet 4 times, and slammed the car door on his leg when he tried to scramble into his car. It'll be an interesting criminal AND civil case heh heh...

Who gives a **** about who's stupider... if there weren't laws/consequences for retaliating against perpetrators I know a lot of you would be agreeing with the EVO owner. I am currently on my 8th year of enlistment in the military AND I am Asian-American. This guy is a disgrace to veterans.

I'm just glad that we drive "Subaru's" and not "Nakajima's".

What Jodice112 said. He caught the vet in the act, there was an exchange of words, vet shoved, he hit the vet, vet tried to escape back to his car, Evo owner slammed the door on the vet's leg. At least that's what the Evo guy said in his thread.

1. The vet was damaging private property when he was confronted. (vandalism/ hate crime)
2. After being confronted the vet called the owner racial slurs. (all a hate crime)
3. The vet then spit on the owner and pushed him. (assault)
4. At that point the driver attempted to protect himself and broke the vet's nose. (self defense)
5. The vet tried to flee the scene of a crime and the driver stopped him from operating a vehicle by closing the door on him and broke his leg. The driver did not know if he was going for a weapon in the car and was protecting himself. (Self defense)
6. After the vet was under control, no more damage was done to him and there were no direct threats made to him and the police were called.

For the record, I'm not advocating the actions of the vet
