I was w/ a couple friends of mine and as I left the movie theater tonight and see some guys (and a girl) getting out of their car behind mine. I'm walking to my car and some guy is standing close to my car. I walk up and see him peeing on the ground by the starboard aft wheel.

I look at him like 'what the heck' and he just looks up at me. I stand there roll my eyes, wait for him and his friends to leave and they go, and kind of giggle at him.

As I drove off I was wishing to myself I said something, as I was a tad :cuss: to say the least.

After thinking on it for a few minutes (I don't get mad often) I thought to myself, this guy isn't going to amount to much, I'll be paying for his welfare, and if he was drunk, got stupid, the event escalated and I had to...um...you know...his family would sue me for everything I have and I'd be paying for him peeing on my car for the rest of my life.

Your thoughts? Tactically, I shoulda stood farther away but didn't, I was tired and wanted to go home.
 
So, the guy urinated next to your vehicle? Is that a reason to get mad, NO!!! Unless he has some sort of toxic, radioactive urine, it ain't gonna hurt your CRV. Just realize he was being rude and be done with it.

And as for him being on welfare, how can you just assume that because he was a cad for a few seconds? Heck, my brother was arrested by the Polizei in Germany several years ago for urinating in public (turns out, in his drunken stupor, he was peeing on the brick wall surrounding a church). Does that mean he'll end up on welfare? I doubt it, he's an E-6, soon to be E-7 with 14 1/2 years in the Air Force as a C-141 mechanic; and when he finally retires, every major airline will be chomping at the bit to hire him for some outrageous salary. Lots of otherwise decent people do stupid stuff under the influence.

My basic point, don't be quick to get angry, and be even more reserved when it comes to making character judgements.

Just my two cents.

OEF_VET is precisely right, Skunk. Let it go.

You know, when I first read this, I thought,"This is off-topic."

But you know, when I think of it, I believe it should stand. Part of our responsibility as armed citizens is to do the right thing when confronted with potentially imflamatory situations. Picking a fight would be foolish.

Being drunk tends to make people stupid. That's why pretty much every jurisdiction has a charge called "Public Intoxication"; if being drunk makes you stooopid, being drunk in public is doubly so. Those who do it when they're in their early 20s tend to be "living the life" that they're told will be fun. Those that do it in their 30s, 40s and on up are just sad. The first group are tedious and occasionally amusing, if looked at in the best light. The second group are just sad. All can possibly be dangerous, but if they're not actively endangering people (i.e., getting into a car to drive, shooting, staggering through traffic, just keep a watchfull eye, and pass them up. He didn't actually hurt your property; he just disgusted you. Expressing disdain/disgust is okay. Kicking his butt or escalating undue confrontation is not.



FYI, a site in Dallas, www.BarkingDogs.org, started publishing photos that a neighborhood association on Lower Greenville Avenue in Dallas, TX, had taken of all the bar-goers and nightclubbers that were urinating in their front yards. Always carry your digicam, flash charged and at the ready! :)
 
Well, my tactical VOLVO would have teken care of that urinating drunkard for me....the 75,000 volts of electricity that arcs its way across my entire vehicle when the alarm is armed is enough to light up anyones leaky ding dong...

well...while that WOULD be sweet....i would have done the same as you....wait it out, and drive home, kinda miffed.:rolleyes:
 
I think I misread your post. He didn't actually pee ON your vehicle, did he? If not, then no, you can't zap him, I guess. That kinda thing (zapping people) gets you in trouble.

Now, if he's peeing ON your CRV, that's a different story.
 
To be safe, I wouldnt even zap him...

remeber....to protect life...not property...Piss can be washed off...does not justify zapping a drunk guy.
 
OEF_VET: Wise Words.

In my youth, I pulled some stupids. I look back and shake my head. The anti's figure we that are pro gun, or we that can carry concealed are a bunch of knuckle dragging cavemen. We that CCW are held to higher standard-IMO.

Thankfully my young, drunk and stupid LEO neighbor moved away. He liked to party, plenty of booze and play with his guns...my bedroom wall was his living room wall. Other neighbors called to complain at 0130 hrs...I was trying to study. Well he and his fellow LEO decided it was me that had called. They urinated on my door, beat and banged on doors and walls. Resident mgr somehow finally got the State Police to take the call...Local supervisor shows up, disarms the whole lot. Neighbor was ORDERED to move, and the whole bunch was written up and told to get their stuff in order-and worse.

Oh yeah, as usual I was wearing my CCW, best thing I did was stay behind heavy furniture and wait, which is what I did.

And yes a .40 cal from a Glock will go through a wall...heavy furniture will stop one. His supervisor really liked seeing that.
 
Some ancient philosophy, it might have been the master instructing "Grasshopper" at the chowdown temple, said, "don't talk when a whisper will do, and don't yell when talking will do. Don't shove when a nudge will do", etc. It makes sense.

Along the lines of bar events, a friend of mine found the sde of his car scraped good when returning to the parking lot of a local watering hole. At the scene, with his paint on it, was a logo medallion from the fender of a popular SUV. He said it took a month or so for him to locate the SUV with his paint on it and also missing the logo. He took his lug wrench and broke all the glass out and tossed the logo on the front seat. Good justice, IMHO, providing he could be sure the miscreant still owned the offending vehicle. Oftentimes, as stated above, it is better to eat it and forget it.
 
Skunk,

You think that's bad? The husky blonde male that lives next door actually pees on the wheels of my Beemer. I've caught him in the act, but I feel too sorry for him to get mad; senility is rough on a body, especially when they're a lovable elderly Golden Retriever. ;)
 
my uncle once...

arrested a guy for peeing in public, on the report it asked what kind of weapon was involved and my uncle, being somewhat of a smart aleck, filled that space in with a word refering to his,,,well, i think you get it.

i went to the court proceedings with him and a good chuckle was had all 'round the courtroom...

:neener:
 
Well obviously there is no reason to get mad at the guy for peeing in public, especially since he was doing nothing to your vehicle.

There was no reason to say anything to him about it. Why start a confrontation for something that doesn't involve any actual problems for you or your stuff?

I have no doubt the peemaster could not see you as you were probably in full tactical ninja gear with stealth-like movement.

I am a little shocked by the fact that you stood there watching and waiting for this guy to finish and for he and his friends to leave. Knowing he has friends there, I would have been inclined to believe that it was a potential setup of some sort with the peemaster being the distraction to draw your focus so that another or others could flank you. In that case, the guy and his friends actually may not have been drunk, but just putting on the act to sucker you in. Of course, being in the ninja garb meant that they never saw you and that the setup was for somebody less proficient in the tactical arts.
 
Tactically: Don't get splashed.

Strategically: It actually could be a setup; get in the vehicle and get on the road if you can.

After-action: Wash your car. You never know what kind of rare isotope some part of your vehicle might be made from.
 
now that the wheel has been marked,
expect every future dog to target the vehicle

either invent a time machine and stop the dood before he unzips

or sell the CRV

;)
 
A couple things.

1. I didn't do a sobriety test, and I jumped the gun assuming the guy was drunk. As for the welfare remark, I have a few friends that get stupid drunk, but...um...as for making character judgments I'll stand by my remark that these weren't society's most desirable members. Hopefully they'll grow up one day.

2. I was 50 yards way walking to the cars when I saw him, they weren't expecting me, and it just turned out the only guy's car he was peeing by/on was mine. While onscene, I figured they were just guys too lazy to find the facilities, rather than planning some attack on the Skunk.

3. By the time I walked up to the car he was peeing on the ground, but I didn't check to see if my tires were wet. I wouldn't be surprised if he peed on the car as well. I didn't feel like getting my feet wet by checking.

4. I shoulda did the panic button thing for fun but I thought of it too late.
 
Peeing on stuff is just funny...

If somebody did it to my car, I'd me mad. Mad enough, well, to whip mine out and pee on his leg.

An eye for an eye...

My two best friends in college were the biggest pair of idiots when they were drunk. Unbelievably amusing for me because I was always the DD to make sure they got home safe and sound. They tended to pee on lots of things, signs, sidewalks, fire hydrants, cop cars, walls, each other, themselves, whatever was convenient. Looking back on it now its kind of sad, but it was always funny as hell back then.

One night we ended up at a Denny's in the wee hours of the morning. We ate, drank coffee, and had some laughs. They didn't sober up much though. They both go to use the head while I pay and walk outside to wait for them. A few mintues go by and they both come out cursing and laughing at each other. Apparently, one missed the pot and peed on the other's shoe. Then the other fought back, and then it escalated and they both ended up with wet pant legs...

Pee washes off. Crap is a LOT harder to deal with.
 
I dunno, Tam. . .My dog learned his lesson about "marking his territory" on my BMW. . .:mad:

And Skunk, I compleatly know where you are coming from. Least you kept your trap shut. . .I dunno if I could or not. The older I get, the less tolerant I am of ignorance and disrespect.
 
When you gotta go, you gotta go.

He had to go, and he went.

I'm pretty tolerant...I was more in a 'rolleyes and headbob' mode than I was mad onscene. I was mad after I left, and seemed frustrated when I posted the thread, but am pretty cool-headed; I only get mad once or twice a year, really.

By the way, don't pay full price for the Matrix Reloaded.
 
Panic button is a good idea.

Or whip out the cell phone and fake a call to police if the perp is within ear shot. See how fast he can stop the stream.:)
