Happens more often than any of us care to admit unfortunately. Some people throw out all the social graces and go all out to be nasty and justify it as roleplaying. IRL, if those characters were to do that, they'd very quickly find themselves taken behind the bike shed and given a good hard "talking to" with a sock full of doorknobs. Bad manners and worse attitudes simply don't fly, especially when there's weaponry laying about and the knowledge of how to use it!

To me the situation is a failure by the GM to implement consequences on the players/characters in question. If somebody kicks a dog, they should expect to be bitten by it, not have it wag it's tail and beg for more.
