The fellow cooped a macho attitude and told us to leave if we didn't like it, and he'd kick my ass, yada yada. No sooner than I told them that I'd go get the manager, the woman spit in my face. No s*it. My wife and I went to the theater manager who said 'sorry' there was nothing he could do. (I don't think a theater manager these days would risk doing nothing if that happened.) If you talk to people who know Miami well, you'll hear plenty of stories about hot-headed people who seem like they had one shot too many of extra strong espresso (and maybe cocaine, and/or amphetamine to boot).

"I would have punched both that guy and the girl in the nose for spitting in my face and saying what they said."

If I remember correctly the woman was pregnant and the guy was an extra large lump. I was, and still am a light 130-ish pounds. Yeah, I know that machismo yada yada (it's not the size of the dog - it's the fight in the dog), but no good would have come from using my fists - it wasn't a life and death situation. One reason I've never been completely convinced that concealed weapons are a good thing for the general population are instances that arise such as this, because if I had had one I'd probably be cooling my heels in lockup with a traumatized wife and lots of legal bills. America has more people in prison per capita than anywhere else in the world, and I bet many are there because they failed to exercise self-control.
