In support of the rage of man

[Athene]

: wonders what ragefully dialing the cops looks like :

It would have been the right thing to do though. She absolutely violated the law when she physically blocked him from exiting the building. You know damn well you would support a woman calling the police in exactly the same situation.

That depends, actually.

Simply blocking a doorway with no physical act or threat is not a criminal offense. 

A past history of the blocker being violent could very well compel me to advise a person call the police on their spouse; just to be on the safe side in case shit goes down. But in absent of that AND in having no physical act or threat present, calling the cops isn't typically the go-to in these situations.

Many reasonable, non-violent people DO do this sometimes. It simply means "Hey...I'm not done talking, yet."
