Really Funny

Yep… this poop is hilarious. Here is a funny story. Someone with a train horn on a land cruiser blasted my Mom while she was crossing the street at any icy crosswalk this weekend. The brave kid who did it drove off really fast, didn’t want to stick around to own up to their assault on my Mom. Regrettably nobody got a license plate number.

She fell, is badly bruised, and now her hip hurts to the point she will be seeing a doctor tomorrow.

I really like your ITG comments about getting CCW permits and shooting somebody retaliating. Yep… that is going to go over well.

hahahah

Welcome - sorry to hear about your mom.
Yeah it’s all fun & games til somebody gets hurt.
CCW & honking don’t mix. IMO

I am a CCW carrier and do carry most every day. I am well aware of the responsibility involved. For all you ITG’s out there that talk about blasting somebody with a fricking train horn, then playing the victim, and shooting when you are retaliated against have some growing up to do. Actually… all of you that think it is funny to assault random people and drive off giggling have some growing up to do anyway. This isn’t funny, it is cowardice.

First point is to say Im sorry to hear about your mom, my mom fell this last winter and broke her humorous bone around her shoulder and is still recovering.

second… what is “ITG”

and third… are you saying its OK to shoot a gun at someone if they honk at you? or warning that someone will shoot if we do provoke the “wrong” person, if so, thats terrible. shooting someone and or at someone if they honk is retarded. “an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.” I also thought that dumping a couple gallons of paint on a members car on here was excessive. for retaliation of honking.

Thanks… I doubt it was somebody specifically on this forum who did it but it is possible. My goal was to get you kids to think about the damage you could do beyond hearing damage when you pull this crap.

Nowhere did I say anything about shooting at anybody or the like in retaliation for being an .

ITG - Internet Tough Guy - aka keyboard commando - aka basement dweller who talks big about how bad oven they are in their off time from working at McDonald’s. Read your own forum with the kids talking about carrying guns while starting fights.

My point with that - on this forum you guys talk about how funny it is to assault people and then play the victim card when they retaliate. Self defense doesn’t work that way.

My retaliation, if I find this guy and I am looking - its a small town, will involve criminal charges and a civil suit. My goal is a felony record for the kid.

If you’ve ever wanted to see an ITG, this is a prime example.

While I feel bad about your mom, you’re here more to complain about how your mom got hurt. Too bad you can’t spell “HurtMyMom” as it’s your screen name.

Oh no… a typo! :eek:

So… you think it is ok for someone with a train horn to blast a 61 yo woman walking across the street at a cross walk causing physical injury and drive off, yet not ok for her son to want to find out who did it and report them to the police? I’m not going to assault, shoot, or otherwise physically molest the miscreant at all. I may never even find them but I am keeping an eye out and putting out the word.

That is not being an ITG, that is being a somewhat enraged son at the indignity of some kid assaulting her.

What would you do if somebody walked up and punched your mom in the face or knocked her down? What this person did is no different. Would you say “oh, those kids” and laugh it off? Or would you want to do something, within the framework of the laws, about it?

Again… you kids need to think about what you are doing

I was wondering what the meaning of ITG meant…

Im all for reporting them, that person needs better standards for honking. You will find most of us have standards. usually not people with dogs, small children, the elderly, etc just bc we dont know what they will do. I miss read. Welcome to the forums, sorry it was due to a bad experience on your part

im sorry for what happened to your mom and all… but why did you get on our forum calling everyone kids saying we are ITG and talking about people who want CCWs.
Everyone knows the risk of what they do, and like twist said mosrly everyone on here has a standard … You can tell your story to complete strangers all you want. i dont think any of us scared your mom… but dont get on here and start bashing anyone… you dont even know us…
…and i get you dont like what we do…thats fine…and i doubt your gonna stay on our forum…so please u had ur rant…and i think it will be best if you stop … once again sorry bout your mom…
thank you

I am gone after this post, but let me close with this statement: I am lumping those of you that do “honking,” which does violate the laws in most places, all together because you go out and harass random people with an act that has the capacity to cause them various forms of damage. Don’t try to sugar coat this like it is just innocent fun.

Standards… really? how do you know the person you just assaulted does not have some hearing disorder, what if it is a vet with PTSD? I know a couple of PTSD sufferers and loud sudden unexpected noises can trigger panic attacks or a stress response.

Felony charges!!! Really!!! I understand you want to “teach” him a lesson but scarred for life? DC charge and have him pay the medical bills with a apology.

When did I ever say anything of the like? Trying to put words in my mouth is a surefire way for me to tune out your dribble.

I honestly feel bad for your mom, but as I have said your main purpose is to come here, complain, and maybe find out who did it … if that person even is a forum member. As others have stated we have standards about honking our horns (no farm animals, young children, the elderly, etc.) and most of my honking is done while at highway speeds because that’s what I have mine for.

So an “enraged son” coming to a forum where the evil horns are talked about threatening to “find the miscreants” to prosecute them isn’t being an ITG? I am of a mind that “cooler heads prevail” and in this case I believe it’s true, and its something I recommend that you take a step back, think outside the box about it, and then reevaluate your approach.

Bud, I’m knocking on 40 so I haven’t been a kid in a long time. There are others on here that I know are older than I, and we have fun with our horns because nothing sounds like them. I have to admit that I find it rather cute that a man approximately my own age would assume that everyone here are young obnoxious whippersnappers bent on making people urinate upon themselves from fright.

Take two Midol’s and walk away. We’re sorry about what happened to your mother, the rest is just you projecting.

Really? Thank God!!!

The good news is we have fresh meat for the complaints section.

Could we please have one of the mods lock this down now?
