BERIGAN Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 (edited) Jim, you will probably here from some of the other old folks like myself. No way you should have confronted these punks, mid teens or not. Those Duquesne University basketball players were shot by teenagers. The punks in your neighborhood could have just grabbed a gun from some house or car. If you didn't have a young wife or baby...no, you still shouldn't have confronted them, just call the police.(Man, I must be channeling my Mom!) Hopefully, they will stay away from your block from now on, but the close-circuit camera idea isn't so bad.

Dan Gould Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 I wouldn't have confronted either, but I would have called the cops while keeping ongoing surveillance at a safe perimeter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connoisseur series500 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 You guys are right, but sometimes testosterone kicks in, and you just have to confront these guys. I would have faced them as well. Good thing I've got a ton of life insurance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 (edited) good thing I'm completely chicken-shit - I woulda just called the cops - but I understand the outrage - Edited September 23, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Alfredson Posted September 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Of course you guys are right. I thought about that after I did it. I should've done what Dan suggested and followed them at a safe distance while calling the cops. I was just frickin' pissed off! Little shits. I could pick them out of a line-up easy... I got good looks at both their faces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got good looks at both their faces. Zora without a father vis-a-vis a camera...? I have had to reign myself in in recent years. It is hard, but necessary. This little fucks could have had a gun. If they are meth or crack heads they WILL shoot your ass. Something told me to hang out with you at your place for a bit last night...but I don't know why. Figured I was just not sleepy after our gig... I will come by your place tonight after the gig. Hopefully, Flint boy will not surface. But damn, if some body were messin around my house, I can't promise the pitbull wouldn't come out. Somebody here gave some nice moderate advice about trailing them from a distance (I would be very distant) while talking to the cops on the cell phone. Maybe it is time for a neighborhood watch program? g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris olivarez Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 You guys are comedians. I was just looking for another way to describe the loser boys invading Jim's neighborhood without using standard issue obscenities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
