I've only received compliments, no haters encountered - and my car sticks out like a flashing neon sign. (knock on wood) And I've parked at some pool halls in rough areas.CocoboloCowboy said:Peer if you take your Porsche into the hood" of East Palo Alto it will get vandelized.
Peer said:Well, here we go again -- last night (an hour ago) as our pool-hall was closing, I realized that the alarm on my car was trigged, and sure enough, it was again assaulted -- this time not only with spit loogies but also with a few muffins that were mashed all over the seats & interior. What a class act.

I commend you for taking the high-road. I would have memorized his license plate, found out where he lived and began to perform equally cowardly pranks on him until it drove him and the people he loved completely crazy. At the very least I would have slashed his tires etc. The only problem with that is that he may become even more enraged and hurt another undeserving soul, like maybe his children or spouse.Peer said:Last night when I parked outside our billiards hall, a burly brute started to go off on how much he "hated" my car and that I "must be a retard for driving this piece of shit." Since all his venom came completely unprovoked, I decided to stay cool to not provoke him any further. However, it probably got a bit awkward for him when I quietly picked up my pool cues from the trunk and followed him straight into the pool-hall -- he obviously didn't except that we would end up under the same roof and also seeing that I kind of "belonged" there.
I didn't think more about this as my practice time went about. But then, a few hours later, when I discover that the burly brute and his posse were checked out, it dawns on me that he might have done something to my car. So I run out to discover that the alarm was triggered and the car was covered with spit loogies. What a class act.
It's funny (not "ha-ha-funny" but "strange-funny") that envy, or whatever it is, can drive certain people to act like this, unprovoked. Hopefully he didn't also key the car -- tomorrow's daylight will tell.

You were smart not to confront a stranger with all of the "nuts" in this world.Peer said:Just to clarify; I do not condemn any NRA member, US Army Reserve, and certainly not any of the troops, (nor people who love this country). I just wanted to convey my concern at the time that this person might have packed a gun -- and, as I stated, since I'm someone who tend to back off when it comes to physical confrontations (especially involving firearms) I fled the scene.

So soldiers are fighting for the rights and privileges of immigrants, among other things? When was the last time the USA was involved in a war that directly threatened the freedoms of its citizens? WWII?Tim-n-NM said:If not mistaken, Joey is a decorated veteran. That fought for your right to be here. Welcome to The United States of America. We are glad to have you.
"Hell, I could not wait to get out of high school so i could join up and be the first kid in my neighborhood to be able to kill."PROG8R said:Glad you are here. Until my freshman year of college I did not have any idea what a foreigner must go through to get a green card. It was a bit humbling to fail the test that they give an outsider to get in. By the end of the semester I along with the rest of the class passed quite easily. Outside of that I think you are missing one of the points that make this place you call home so great; and that is the ability to be different and have a difference of opinion. I think you are using the wrong interpretation of our language to explain what you want to say: Just because people dont agree with a government decision or what the right way to handle a situation is doesnt mean that they are phony patriots. Political parties just dont do things the same way, I hated Bill Clinton in office, lots of people hate Bush in office. But I am willing to bet that 90% or more would be more than willing to suit up and defend this nation without question if threatened. Hell, I could not wait to get out of high school so i could join up and be the first kid in my neighborhood to be able to kill. By the time I was 17 I was in Ft. Benning. I was so damn gung-ho that I would have done anything to anyone without question at all. Dang, I have gotten way off topic here. It is easy to get someone riled up when you (god I hate to quote the movies but this is so damn good) "question the very way that your freedoms are provided". There are a few people here that are downright not patriotic; HIPPIEPOOL comes to mind right away and then there are others that you are confusing the ability to disagree with patriotism. I hope i am right here. Just trying to give you the benefit of a doubt.

Get some serious punishment for people that do this type of stuff.
He wanted to amputate the thumbs off of people that graffiti public and private property.

Sounds like a great idea to me.
