Ahmed, actually this was at a gym with no lane speed postings. He wasn't swimming consistently. He would swim a 25 really fast splashing and kicking and creating lots of wake, then stop. I would swim a few more laps straight and then he would do a 25, splashing and kicking and making it generally unpleasant for me. He just didn't want to share, but sorry, sometimes sharing must happen. And no matter how ticked he was, I really don't think that's any sort of excuse to kick someone.
I mean, I was ticked the other day when I was circle swimming in the "Fast" lane (I belong to a different gym now) with 2 women who really should not have been in the Fast lane at all. But it would have never occurred to me to kick one of them to get them out of the lane.
