I think either incident can set someone off depending on the person. I was at Dearborn Homecoming this weekend, which is supposed to be a casual, family friendly event similar to A.B.E that attracts big crowds. I witnessed a guy bump a girl and step on her foot in the process. The girl's boyfriend immediately went after him with an "How dare you hurt my woman!" attitude. It escalated into a huge face in face shouting match with a number of people gathered around watching to see when the fists would start flying and almost turned into such a fight had security not separated the two in time.
I think that some posters are saying that anything can set anybody off at anytime. If that person has a gun on them either being carried legally or illegaly, can make the equation that much more dangerous because just don't know how that person will react.
