So my car got egged...

that sux, take a walk and scope out the hood rats and bring your walking stick

 

damn, that sucks
those punks should diaf

 

Sorry to hear about that Readymix, I see what you mean by

Take care man.

 

I had some kids kick my old car and cause $800 worth of damage.
You know that Pulp Fiction quote about how it almsot would have been worth it if you could catch the ****er doing it? Its so true.

 

That happened to me five days after I got the FXT. I went back and chased the kids down with the car. probably a stupid idea, but it helped me feel a tiny bit better.

 

b4 I got my subie, I was driving my beautiful Ricer in north mpls threw residential streets. Came to a stop sign with a few kids(5-7yrs old) playing across the street where I'm heading. I was eye-contacting a little girl(incase she does anything stupid) while she was standing still looking at me with something in her hand. I drove nicely slowly past them. BOOM!! something hit on my rear quater panel. Sh*t..i new it. Slam on my brakes, reverse, turn and went after the running kids. They told me "I'm sorry". 2dudes walking by, "hey hey they're just kids". I told them "Do you like it when I throw sh*t at your car?" I drove off. Checked my car later. Little scratch but no big deal.

 

^this!

 

I think the problem with kids these days is that their parents aren't allowed to spank them anymore because they are afraid of retalition.

I was spanked as a child, and i learned from it, and turned out quite all right. These kids aren't - WORDS do not mean anything. Actions mean something. Even if it's just a few slaps on the ass, the kid WON'T do it again. Am I wrong??

 

two months after I got my 06 i was driving to drop my wife off at a movie when i heard a loud a loud thunk on the side of my car, then I saw a bunch of kids go running off. I chased them down in the street in kenwood (very wealthy neighborhood) and did sweeping circles around the block until I found those little turds. I jsut caught them running into a 5 million dollar mansion.

Turns out it was a bunch of kids who live in the house behind my building, they threw a rock at my brand new car. I talked to the dad who was waiting for me, all he said was "boys will be boys"

To be honest I was more mad at the dad for his crap parenting than the kids, although he said that after taking them to the vikings game, the toy store and sebastian joes they were a little too hyper (WTF????)

I told him to stop spoiling his ****ing kids before i run them over the next time I see them. I also told each kid that they were personally responsible for my car from now on and if anything happens to it i'm coming back with the police. I told the dad to get some ****ing parenting skills and stop spoiling his rotten children. he wilted in front of me, it really is sad to see me have to lecture a 50 year old like he is a child.


best aprt was later the mom invited me into their million dollar mansion, apogized profusely and said the kids would all write me apologies, even wrote down my address.

Still 2 years later I haven't gotten those letters but every time i see those kids i put the fear of god in them and they sprint to get away from me.

 

wow an this from a mod!?

I agree....

 

leave the readymobile in the garage, and next time I come over we're finding them.

 

My sister's car was egged about 6 times in high school. It was a POS 87 civic, but still not cool, especially when it run into the wiper cowl.


And yes, it was some spoiled brat. When we threatened them with litigation, they resonded with a letter from one of their top dawg layers. I tell you, so many parents will not see any wrong with their children it sickens me.

 

Sometimes taking matters into your own hands is necessary. I'll admit it, a few years ago a friend and I were driving back from a bar and got a rock thrown at his car. His car was nothing special, but that didn't matter. We caught 2 of the kids, they were probably 17-18..and we beat the **** out of them, to the point where they were pretty bloody and crying like little babies, and we left them there. I'm sure they learned their lesson more so than any cop could do justice to them. It felt damn good too

 

The only level-headed response in this whole thread.

I *understand* the urge but beating the kids is no less cowardly than their acts of vandalism. Also, an adult beating a minor is a poor legal move - trading damage to their body for damage to your property. You'll lose that battle every time.

Abuse the parents (repeatedly if necessary) - preferably in public to maximize shame and humiliation. Trust me, the kids WILL get the message.

 

If you have the option of abusing the parents, that is your best bet, yes. But, do you think if you caught some 18yr old vandalizing a vehicle, and asked them, "I want to talk to your parents", they are going to take you their house? I don't think so.

If the situation is right, and their parents can be found, that is the best way to deal with it...if it's 2am, and no one is around, it's a whole different ball game.

 

Like my post clearly states - beating kids/minors is stupid...as much as it might seem warranted at the time.

Beating an 18yo prick? Let the fur fly.

 

i don't even know where to start...

 

Steal their Jesus statue and hold it for ransom. I would probably go with the whole t-p their yard before it rains type of thing, but I think that would cause more trouble. I suggest you go through the parents and if they don't really care too much, then they can't get mad the next time it happens and you break all of the little bastards fingers.

My cousin had a party a year ago, one guy got pissed ass drunk and put a hole in her wall. Now I know it was a party to begin with but we usually expect adults to act like adults drunk or not drunk (fobia has an exception). So when he passed out we took all the money/cash he had in his wallet, took all his alcohol and gave it away, and the best part was shaving off his left eyebrow to leave him with a choice to make... Would he rather...have one drawn in eyebrow, or no eyebrows?

Well that explains your comments. I thought that was you who started that thread.

I don't see how Zak would be coming off as being "jealous" in the post that he made.

Please explain?



Oh, that sux about your car dude. Sorry to HIGHjack

Edit: this is what I was replying to before you edited

 

2 AM is the best time to tell their parents. I'd be pretty pissed off if somebody woke me up in the middle of the night because of some bull**** like that.

 

Pay Alex $20 and have him go beat up all of the neighborhood kids.

 

do you know which house it was for sure that they came from? i'd be down for some egging fun....havent done that since high school

 

True, I would be beating my own kids (if I had any) if that happened...

jk

 

hold them down, shove a hard boiled egg in there ass, then kick them so it breaks and they have to pass broken egg shells.

I know, I am sick

 

That Tom is always thinkin'.

 

agreed, pay alex, he's kind of a scrapper, they would be scared of him

YES. A forceful citizens arrest.

 

That sucks Jason. Mine has the same egg mark in my front fender. Got egged this last winter.

 

Yea i know.. if there is one thing you don't mess w/ is someone else's car.

I would just wake your parents up at 2am every morning untill they pay for the detail work to fix it.

 

Exactly, these same kids will tell their parents some man beat their ass for no reason. The parents will call the cops screaming that their snowflake was beat up and then you will go to jail for the night.
These punks aren't worth it.

FWIW, police departments are taking vandalism complaints more seriously than they used to, as vandals tend to move on to bigger stuff. Hell, when my neighbors called in my car being vandalised and called the police (St. Paul), they had two cars comb my neighborhood for 30 minutes.
Unforunantly, most suburban dept are too focused on their meal tickets (traffic) to care and Minneapolis is too understaffed.

On the other hand, if I got my hands on some punk kids vandalizing my car this all might go out the window.

Careful with that citizens arrest stuff. If you mess it up (like getting the wrong person, or even a technicallity) can screw you over. And if you screw up and they're a minor, you might be looking at a felony.

 

You'll notice it doesn't say anything about private citizens in the forceful arrest section. I don't think you can legally use force to make a citizen's arrest in Minnesota.

 

I noticed, but I wouldn't have that kind of self control.

 

biggest crock of s hit that the liberals ever pushed...

I got beat on (ok smacked with a belt or wooden spoon) and turned out respectful (mostly) and my kids are the same, we use a mixing stick for paint.. makes more noise than anything when it hits them... (may end up in jail now)

I say crap in a bag go leave it on the doorstep... ON FIRE!!!

 

the problem is you guys live in cottage grove.
It's been going on for years.

 

I didnt used to get beat, but i got spanked, i'm not gonna lie, IMO i turned out better then my brother. I'm sure my parents would agree.

 

Good way to get arrested.

As for spanking, don't take this as legal advice, but I'm 90% sure that open hand spanking is still legal as long as its not done wantonly and frequently (and maybe in public).
(I'm running to westlaw to look it up)

Also, it would be a great case for jury nullification.

Finally, lots of parents who actively beat the **** out of thier kids (for little to no reason) claim they were just spanking when the evidence shows otherwise. (Spanks don't lead to cigarette burns)

M.S.A. § 609.377

Huuuuum, well that laws pretty vague. . .

 

(not talking about the parenting arguement)
Screw laws. Beat the kids. egg the house... Do whatever you need to feel you got back at them.

If you don't get caught you can do anything you want!
