What Would You Do If Hoodlums threw rocks at your Car While You Were Driving?

So tonight I was with my girl and driving home. I come around a curve and there are 4 kids standing in the middle of the road and they started launching rocks at my truck as hard as they could. I was fuming. I turned my truck around and drove up to them as fast as I could. They took off through a field and I chased them through the field with my truck. I got out and chased them with my machete. I was mad but I had no intentions on hurting them. I just wanted to scare them to keep them from doing it anymore. My girl was beyond pissed and called me immature. I have always been taught to stick up for myself and I wasn't about to let them get away with it. How should I have handled the situation?

Well considering I drive a corvette and body damage to corvette is hella expensive...

Someone would have ended up in the hospital.

I guess it depends how you react to things like that and what you value. I have a few friends that probably couldn't care less and would probably get out and throw rocks at the car with them.

I personally have little-man syndrome and my car is my prized possession because of all the modifications I've made to it... Due to that I would have probably reacted the same way you did, just without the machete lol.

There isn't much you can do.

 

Society protects underage people from facing any justice. Also parents aren't usually held responsible for the actions of their children.

 

At best you could've made a citizen's arrest, had cops contact the parents and then pressed charges for damaging your vehicle. That series of events probably wouldn't have been worth your time.

Pull my 40 cal and scare the poo out of them. But after that just let it go..$200 to my car insurance company isn't worth going to jail over.

Also if the thugs were of a different race than me(meaning they are black/mexican) I would have drove on. No reason to be on national news over some rocks IMO.

    • He isn’t but looking at what those guys are getting paid, paying him what he’s making now wouldn’t have been terrible, they should have and still should be looking at pairing some guys with brown to form a pretty dominant d line 
    • The Bryce hate is nearly laughable.  He looked like garbage the first two games, but has really, really shown improvement and growth.  People who know football are taking notice.  Will Bryce ever be Arron Rodgers, Farvre, Manning or any other hotshot gunslinger?  No, but I think he is a smart football player who has survived a lot more than most other QB's would have after 2.5 years.  So long as this injury doesn't linger I think you will see legitimate growth over the next two years, with a big leap coming next season. Reich and Brown not working together, Duce causing trouble behind the scenes.  Starting WR's of Mingo and Chark.  No legitimate scheme for the OL.  Fitterer's general incompetence. An owner who was desperate for attention.  How did Zac Wilson, Mariota, Winston, Tribuski, Rosen, Lawarence, Fields, Jones, Pickett, and Richardson fair after 2.5 years?  We see what happens when the Texans have not given Stroud the support. The 2018 draft had great talent, they just needed to mature, hell we wasted two of the top three drafted that year.  Outside of Allen, Mahomes, Jackson, Burrow, or Drake Maye, I'm not sure I really would want any other 1st round QB drafted in the past 10 years? RELAX......  Bryce is our guy as we grow as a team.  The only other option I currently see is maybe a buy low draft pick on Drew Allar if he falls to the third round or lower. Bryce is going to be extended.  He won't get Prescott money which would benefit our team going forward.  A mid range extension like Darnold or Baker got may be just the thing this team needs to keep growing.
    • Even if he had just a two week window of incredible play, it would open up people eyes to what the offense would look like with a different QB than what we've been fielding for the last couple years. No one is saying White should or could be a long term solution, just a different perspective on what the offense could look like, and if it hypothetically did happen it would put major pressure on the situation that they've been half-assing
