Teaching Kids respect
I have the day off so I clean up my POS Taurus SHO and then head inside. I hear some noisy kids so I look outside and a member of a group of high school kids is doing something to the bumper of my car.
I put my shoes on and look at the car, pink stuff on the back......well now I have choice...let it go or not....ok...not. The chase is afoot with a warning shot of hey ******* did you just put something on my car! No response......so I actually broke into a jog(which may not have been seen since I was in my 20s). You with the long fu$%in hair......still no response.....then finally a very pronounced "you with the long fu$%in hair turn around" This time it works......I ask him again did you put somthing on my car......he finally says "Yes, but its just chalk" I respond with get your as$ back there and wipe it off! He is floored and parrots what I just said....you want me to go back and wipe it off.....I respond with a polite..."you're god Dam# right" At this time all 4 of his buddies have decided that its best for them to leave they are all 16 or so....I chew the kids a$s the whole way back, he wipes it off, I then make him give me his info off his drivers lic and phone number for his parents.....I also let him know if I have any issues down the road, I'll be by to see him. I also let him know that if the number if bogus I'll be at the school to hunt him down In the end the kid was so freaking scared that I almost felt bad. Hopefully this is a lesson learned......I still got it

Re: Teaching Kids respect
They are only kids Kevin. The kid probably is ****ing in his pants right now wondering when the call will be. Nuff said.

Re: Teaching Kids respect
Beating up the parent's........I'll go with that.
But not beating up the kids.

Re: Teaching Kids respect
I was surprised he went back, I thought I would get attitude(although I am 6' 3" and a former nationally ranked powerlifter in the 275 and SHW class)....but he was pretty shaken up when I came after them, it was probably a waste of time but I did try to talk to him about why it was pretty damn stupid to do......both my cars will probably get trashed next week, but this kind of BS eats at me.....I tend to let people be if they let me be

Re: Teaching Kids respect
Hope you scared them straight enough to not do anything like that again.
We all screwed-up as little Angels.

Re: Teaching Kids respect
Just get yourself a 110lb German shepherd. People are afraid to even walk in front of my house on the side walk. He is very intimidating. Very protective.
