I like Jamo's idea of leaving an empty holster on the seat but I like the idea of shooting the freakin' miscreants even better. No...perhaps public whipping... flogging... flaying. Yeah, that's the ticket: flaying... Unfortunately, under my circumstances and in the town in which I live, I'm pretty much restricted as to what I can say to whom. So I'm better off to just avoid the situation. I try to park where I can see the car but far enough from other cars and avoid leaving it out of sight for too long.
Pouring the Coke on the car and sliding down the rollbar really takes the cake. "How would you like me to do that to your taxicab?" I'm not sure how much self control I'd be able to exercise under those circumstances so, again, I'd be better off just avoiding the whole mess.
I honestly think a large part of the problem is the "class envy" fostered by the previous political admistration over the space of eight years and still perpetuated by liberals. The have nots, the will nots, the do nots, the can nots, the do nothings, the don't give a sh!ts; in short all those categorized above as "mall trash" were and are encouraged to believe that those of us who have something they covet only obtained it by "unfair" means and have no more right to it than those who are unwilling to obtain it the old-fashioned way: to WORK for it. Since they're as "entitled" to it as anyone else, if they can't own it, they have the right to damage it to even the score. As Evan so succinctly put it: " "F" 'em. "
When people come up to admire my car from a discreet distance and behave as civilized members of society, I often invite them to sit in the car and even offer to take their picture in the car if they have a camera. When some toothless, braless, primered-Monte-Carlo-driving trailer park inhabitant yells out the window: "Hey! Whatyearizzat?", I ignore 'em. Fortunately I haven't had any ice cream dripped on the car or Coke poured on it or kids sliding down the rollbars or standing on the sidepipes. Again Evan nailed it:
