Sorry my bad, Scholastic!
Look, I don't disagree with anything you said. I'm also not a fool. When I took the responsibility of becoming an basketball official I took the oath to which I will do my best as an official. If the fan, player, coach and anyone else that has the balls to approach me after and anywhere on and off the grounds of the school and try to cause me harm this guy/person doesn't have it all together. You could punch me in the face or what ever you please, as you mentioned. If he calls me a bigot, then I'm walking away once I'm out of the gym.
In today's enviorement, you never know who and what is capable of doing anytime or anywhere. I could only tell you about a personal expereince that happened to me, as I umpired a adult softball game. the call didn't go toward certain individual, He was nuts enough to come after me with a bat. He was arrested for doing what he did. I was lucky at that moment to get away unharmed, I look at if as my luck may eventually run out.
That doesn't mean that I will not do my best to disfuse any situation.
Everyone will handle every sitaution differently.
