Richardson then told her boyfriend that he had struck the wrong person. The manager of the store echoed the sentiment, coming over to Virasami, putting his hand on his shoulder, and saying, “I think you have done enough damage. I think you have hit the wrong person.” What this form of words suggests, of course, is that there was a right person for Virasami to have hit. Had he struck the right man, the manager (and presumably everyone else) would have had little to complain about. The manager expects violence in his store, including fatal quarrels over who comes before whom at the checkout.
