Took my wife to Wallyworld and let her off at the door and went and parked. I was just sitting there watching the rain and waiting on her when a jeep pulls in the parking lot doing about 50 mph.
He aims for a loose shopping cart and nails it. The cart comes flying at my truck and hit it (Thank God) only on the tire. Then two asshats get out of the jeep which they parked two spaces over from me. The driver is laughing until I get out of my truck to survey the damage.They have the baggy pants on and tattoos on their necks and all the fake bling bling. I looked at him and said wtf were you thinking? You need to respect other peoples property. I said you could have really damaged my truck or someones elses vehicle. His friend is telling him to appologize at least. The driver just stands there and starts to walk off. Once again I asked him wtf was he thinking. He shoots me a bird over his shoulder and keeps walking. I yelled once moreto him and said "Hey watch this" I got my spyderco knife and started to cut the top off his jeep. By this time my wife is getting in the truck and just giving me the wtf look. Guy turns around and starts cussing me and walking towards his jeep, which by now is a convertable. I gave him the finger and drove off. I looked in my rearview and he was just standing there looking at his jeep. Wet ride home for him. I know I over reacted, but fuck 'em if they can't take a joke. Update Went out in the daylight and looked at my truck, wheel is scratched pretty bad. I didn't see it in the dark. I think some mothers polish will take it out. Update#2 7/12 I went to waffle house this morning and ran into one of my usual waffle house buds, a policeman.I thought I might as well get this over with so I asked him if he would check me for a warrant as I had committed a crime a day ago. He laughed and asked me what I did, so I told him the whole story. He got this funny look and picked up his radio and called another officer to come over if he had a minute. So the other cop walks in and the first one starts telling him what I said. The second officer cracks up laughing. I don't know what to think at this point. So here's what happened after I left the scene. The two gangbangers had stolen that jeep an hour beforehand. The lady it belonged to didn't even know it was gone until the police contacted her. It seems my two guys were cruising for a new car to steal close to walmart. I had parked to the side of walmart, not on their property but in the shopping mall area. After our encounter they walked into walmart and attempted to use that lady's stolen debit card at an atm. They abandoned the jeep and were on foot. A policeman was cruising the parking lot when he found the jeep with the top cut off. So he got out to investigate. he saw that the steering wheel had been punched and the radio and stuff were gone. He called it in and was told by another cop that he just saw 2 males walking in the rain and one was carrying a trash bag. He stopped them and guess what was in the bag? Her cellphone, the radio and some other stuff. The passenger guy spilled his guts to the police. They hit the cart to make it roll into my truck to see if it had an alarm on it. They knew they couldn't drive the jeep with no top as it would attract attention so they were walking to find another one to steal. They had burglary tools also on them and the driver had enough meth on him for resale.The driver had outstanding warrents and the passenger was on probation for gang related charges,assault . Both had served time in prison. In the end I told the cop that I would like to pay that lady's deductable for her insurance. He said forget it, the ones who stole it need to pay. So looks like I'm clear and they are in jail. |

Oh fuck......
You screwed up. Big time. ETA if he took your plate number, you are so screwed. I understand the anger at the disrespectful asshole and all but.....you witnessed him committing a crime, he witnessed you committing a crime. If he reports it, you lose. |
|
He deserved it but did he seem the kind of guy who would endager you if you had another encounter with him? I am sure he is pretty pissed off at you right now.
|
|
Oh fuck nothing. That's some funny shit if you ask me. Screw that a-hole. He thought he was tough shit. Let him ride home in the rain |
|
|
That wouldn't be the first time for me. He couldn't get my plates, I have a tinted cover over them. |
|
|
Well aside from what you did being illegal, YOU ROCK! |
|
|
I applaud you, but...
still, dick needed some of his own medicine! |
|
Never said it wasn't funny. Just illegal. |

|
As tempting as it is to be "in your face" about such matters, I often find covert action is the best way to go.
|
|
If this was 40 years ago, he got off lightly. Today, you are lucky you are not in jail.
That being said, I can certainly smell what you are cookin'. |
|
Sounds like something I would do, which probably means it's not a good thing.
Welcome to the world of rage. |
|
Me too. Before I started carrying concealed. |
|
|
Of course not, if I have to clear leather I'm firing. For the record, I was as nice as I could be at first even though I knew he was laughing about hitting my truck. A quick " I'm sorry I fucked up and wasn't thinking" would have ended it right there. I'm very easy going actually |
|
|
Excellent point. I have had to change many things now that I carry a weapon. Sometimes, it almost doesn't seem worth it to have to walk away from some things. I can still cuss like a |

True, but so is slamming shopping carts into someone elses car. That's wreckless driving |

|
Read the story to my wife,
"She says your nutz and two wrongs dont make a right" I say..Good for you, Im sure he had it com'n |
|
I think I love you. |
|
|
It's ok Sarge, I know I did wrong. Feel free to tell me what an asshat I was. |
|
|
Well the trick is,
People wouldn't pull shit like he did, if people like you, did what you did... Serves him right. |
|
My only comment is don't get caught. And if you do get caught be willing to pay the price. There are two schools of law in my world. The law of the land and the law of Sgtar15. They often conflict, so if I find myslef inviolation of one I pay the price in the other. Sgat1r5 |

It seems that these days, the right thing is illegal...........Good Job
|
|
...and that's why what he did is a great thing. That little bastard will remember him for the rest of his life. Although he should have left the punk with a fat lip. |

Dude came in way too fast, wrong way down the row, in a Safeway parking lot. Whipped into a spot just opposite me as (someones) 9 YO daughter was entering passeger side of (someones) vehicle. He nearly rolled into her, and (someone) received a "what you lookin at" glare from the driver of the punk-mobile. After he and his butt-buddy entered the store, it took about 30 seconds for (someone) to hit his tire stems with a pair of side cutters, and leave him with 4 very difficult to repair flats.

He didn't seem that bothered when he pushed the cart into your truck. I wouldn't normally say this, but fvck em. If he apoligized, this could have been avioded, but someone had to play tough guy and just walk away.
Maybe next time he'll think twice before wantonly doing stupid stuff to other people's property. |

good man |
|

I think it was a good job. People of all sorts need to learn that if they act in an antisocial manner, they will get hit on the head with an anvil. I firmly believe that people need to associate their ill-conceived actions with very very unpleasant consequences.
Mr Jackass will hopefully be more circumspect in showing blatant stupidity in the future. That being said, I expect the Law might see things differently. Also, I suspect that you are very easy going but that you also despise the idea of being a sucker. That makes for a short temper, which again I think is ok. Overwhelmingly good reaction. Just watch your six please. |
|
That was sooo wrong!
GREAT JOB! I personally wouldnt have take that course of action.....but w/e |
|
good stuff. I could only pray these kind of things would happen more often, as long as they are in "good taste", if you see what I mean.
|

I'd have to agree with her....... You act like THAT and think it's ok ?? What the fuck ? You got some serious fucking problems........... You'd deserve EVERY BIT of whatever those two decide to do, to get revenge on YOUR vehicle, in my opinion, were they to find it...... Where the hell did you get off thinking it was cool to do that, after you admit freely that the cart didnt do ANY damage to your truck ??? Because some kid acted like a dickhead ?? Honestly, I hope they DID get your license plate and you get charged with whatever...... you deserve it and whatever you got coming to you. If that was MY car you fucked with, I'd be burning with payback for your ass....... |
|
I think you should have pulled out the fifty cal and put one through the engine block.
|
|
Yep. See my edited to add stuff post above. |

|
I never said it was ok, just satisfying. I have good attorneys too. Payback you say? No balls to do it face to face at the time? pffftt |
|
|
Ha... he said "Pffffft" |
||
|
Whatever....... You acted like a complete ass. Plain and simple the way I see it. And hey..... You came here and asked ? Don't like the response ? So sorry...... Guy does NO damage to YOUR vehicle....... You ADMIT this. He acts like a little dickhead, and hurts your tender sensibilities, and little else. YOU then, turn around and cause probably a couple thousand dollars of INTENTIONAL damage to HIS vehicle ? If you fail to see how immature and stupid that is, I don't know what else to tell you. Carry on with the tough guy speak though, if it makes you feel like a man.... But don't be too suprised if one day, someone tougher hands you your ass. Or you come to find your car all fucked up, if they do happen to find you...... What do I know.... |

ah, one of tennessee's sons making us proud.
and it is good that your wife wasn't there, if she's anything like my wife. i almost NEVER get to have any fun. |
|
POLL ! |
||
|
Done |
|||
|
So if a 'Banger' takes a couple shots at you but does not hit anything, you would not have a problem with it? After all, he did not do any damage......Where is that picture of the 'WTF' cat when you need it........ |

|
I'd have cut the top off then thrown the shopping cart in the front seat.
|

I would have done something, but not in such a way as to get into trouble myself. I would have sought silent justice.
That was the official line. I probably would have done the same thing or worse in truth, if I had the balls. You apparently do, you made my own day. |

That about sums up what I would of thought. Some people just have no respect for others. Like today, I was running in that park. It was warm so I dropped my T shirt and my bottle of gatorade on a picnic table that I pass every 2 miles. I can just grab a couple of sips and keep running. Well Today I am about 1/2 mile away from the table heading towards it on a hill looking down I see this truck in the park where it should not be driving around. I am now off the hill and about 1/4 mile from the table I see the truck is heading out and I could tell he was slow getting out of the park he should not be in, he had to pass my table. I get up to the table and my bottle of gatorade is dumped all over my shirt. I was so pissed. Why do people have to be assholes. |
