Do you HAVE to be nice to people? Certainly not. Will it change your view in their eyes? Certainly. Does that matter? Only you can answer that.
Keep in mind that even though your scorn was meant for him, it was witnessed by the entire class. Perhaps there was even one person in there that you cared to not make a bad impression on. Keep in mind that only a handful of people may disagree or agree with you here and say you were or were not out of place, or should've phrased things differently. Many more will read the words, though. Only you can answer whether you care about the impression you give to fellow TFPers as well.

This is where I got it from.
Jozrael not only calls Walter an asshole, he goes on to imply that Walter's voiced opinions cast him in a negative light for the rest of his class as well as the average anonymous TFP member.
