I was out running the street one night when I was 13 years old and one of the guys that I was with said something smart-ass to somebody who was driving by us in a car.
They turned around and chased us down, they caught my friend.
He told us when they caught up with him the driver got out of the car with a tire iron and without saying a word smacked him in the head. They broke his nose, and took out all of his upper front teeth. I promise you wherever my friend is at today he's still carrying the marks of that beating.
I learned a lesson that night. That was 40 years ago and I STILL don't trifle with people I don't know.
This morning on my way home somebody pulled out in front of me and I stopped. The lady behind me almost drove up my rear end and she decided she was going to throw a fit.
When she did my mind went back 40 years. I know what kind of people live in this town. There's a reason I don't walk out my front door without a gun. There's also a reason that even though I'm always armed (really BECAUSE I'm always armed) I STILL DO NOT trifle with people I don't know.
If that woman keeps going off on random strangers it's only a matter of time. Sooner or later she's going to win the Psycho Lottery and the person she goes off on is going to get out of the car with a tire iron (or a gun). If she's lucky they'll only screw up her car.
Then SHE'LL be on Facebeast talking about how you shouldn't trifle with people you don't know.
