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.

    • D Carr must have really disliked the saints to wait and do this announcement after the draft has passed if he made this call a few weeks before the draft sure they would have approached it and the offseason differently.  oh well will be interesting to see how their qbs perform.  would love to see them roll with Thill and just make the whole offense towards his skillset.  Although sadly would be only playing in about half the games with how often he gets injured. 
    • I have to say it's quite fascinating seeing you pivot from months and months of wailing and agonizing about threads derailing into Bryce Young slingfests only for you to turn around and do the same thing. And just for the record. Nobody in life ever attained wisdom and clarity from mistakes by having people blindly fawn over them and tell them they are above reproach and incapable of making mistakes. Our front office is just as human as we are. And based on the fact that front offices across the league outside of a handful of teams change on a fairly regular basis it's safe to say they are certainly no more infallible than the average Joe even though they possess significantly more knowledge usually. If you want a utopia where all you do is shine shoes for anyone associated with the Panthers you go right on ahead and create yourself a new community sir. More power to you.
    • I trust Morgan when it comes to LBs so I think Wallace will do well.
