Maybe my example's not too clear, but my
point is you can't justify
trolling nor excessive arguing with "Hey, let's be nice with him,
he's
having a bad day". That way the world would be in a massive chaos.

They don't take them to prison, and they don't exile them from the
island.

Oh yeah. And if someone, in real life, goes and starts fighting
with a
policeman for some reason, well, maybe he's having a bad day, let
him
go!

"You know it when you see it" - that's vague enough for me!
Often people don't know they're having a bad day, and may respond
more
harshly than they would normally. Not their fault, it's hum
an nature.
