I hate vandalists

[ATiredExplorer]

So I'm with my friend and we were on our way home from what turned out to be an awesome night. He's driving and we see like 7+ teens in the grass.

Well as we pass by them, they start throwing stuff at his explorer. He brakes and starts talking a lot of **** to them. They started running in the woods (on the right of the grass and the road) to hide. Well we made a u turn on the other side of the road (left side) then got back on the road we were just on (right side) and started looking for them as we passed by. They threw just a bit more as we did pass by and he was pissed. But we didn't do anything because there were about 8+ of them that we saw when we first got hit and so we just drove off. I wanted to call police but he said they could probably be gone by the time they get there. But man, I was scared when he was yelling at them because I didn't know what he was going to do. I've never heard him so en-raged like that before.

We discussed on what it could have been on what they were throwing, hopefully not rocks, but it didn't sound like it. I figured mud balls or something.

Well, when we got to his house, we see a bit of an orange gooey type substance on the passenger rear door and on the drivers side door on the black part that encloses the window. Didn't smell like anything or that could be harful to the paint. It was thick like a type of syrup or silly putty mixed with other stuff possibly. After looking at it he was like, "well whatever, guess I'm going to the carwash tomorrow." We both laughed at that. But it sounded like so much more. I heard like 10 hits and there was only 2 marks.

I'm just mad because those teens look awfully tall and were obviously older then us, which we are both 18. And the fact that they're still doing **** like that. And it was at 2 in the damn morning! I mean how bored do you have to be and throw stuff at random people's car's? We both could understand if they were maybe 13, but they obviously werent. One looked like he was well past 6'2 and in his 20's and I'm 5'8.:thumbdwn:
It's just stupid that there's people like that. I mean me and my friends do some dumb stuff but just with eachother and all fun and games. Nothing to like anyone else or random people out there that involes vandilism or anything of that sort.

paintballs maybe?

I got paint balled once... I whipped a quick U and went after them. They ran through some woods. I found out who it was, but I haven't decided what to do yet, if anything. At least it didn't leave any dents.

Saturday night someone through a rock through the back window of Char's Corolla. I hate vandals too

if it were me driving i would have hit the brakes stoped poped it in reverse and drove into the grass Think they could out run my x in reverse?

I've had some F**kers throw some beer cans at my mounty. I had the ABS off and was in the opposite lane seperated by a rised grassy median. Slammed on the brakes which was a lound skid, then whipped her in reverse burning out while doing it and flipped her around(i swear it was like the movies). i jumped the median and got air from it which was fun, but they were already hualin ass. I got close enought to get thier plate number and called the cops.

Did i press charges...damn right i did.

well i was a vandalist once but i was like 16 and me and some friends had a garbage bag full of krispy kreme donuts mostly jelly and custard filled and we hide on an enbankment but i had the time of my life but now i see how much of a dumbass i was lol .......ironically speaking just the other day i went after two guys peeling out in the street infront of my house so i guess i am a contradicting myself a lil but tha instance about the orange gooey stuff thats when you find anything in your car to throw back such as a bottle? and like he said go after them if they think your crazy enough to come back then your crazy enough to whip their ass in my opinion

I was snowballed once while driving in the snow, there were 4 kids on the side of the road, I didn't care much about the first 2 hits, but the 3rd must have been an ice ball, I hit the brakes so the 4th would miss me, then goosed it to slide the rear end around and went back to "confront" them. They took off running across a field. 2 of my friends were in the car so i had to show off, so I followed them through the field. After about 60 yards the 4 of them were out of breath running through the 6-8 inches of snow, they stopped and fell down. I pulled up along side them and stared them down, then peeled out making sure to kick up as much snow at them as possible. I think I made my point. luckily for them there was no damage to my X.

 

[DeRocha]

Sorry to hear about the dumb @$$e$ throwing stuff... I would definitely wash the entire car IMMEDIATELY... Lots of innocent stuff can cause lots of damage to the clear coat all the way to through the paint..

Reminds me of the scene in mr. and mrs. smith with the van. I've always wanted to try that but I'm too scared it will flip haha. But hey, if a mini-van can do it, then just maybe....

Thanks to all the reply's and "helpful"(haha) suggestions!
Fun story's to read! But it sucks when it happens to yourself haha

Yeah I told him if it were me driving I would have ran over all of them (not really, just trying to get him in a good mood haha). But I would have been super mad 'cause I did just wash it the day before.
I would have gone on the grass as well, but that place I guess was under construction and there were dirt hills. Only if it was lifted would I have chased after them = )
And if it wasn't pitch black in that area.

Vandals are the worst. I had the drivers door of my truck spray painted gray in a spot one night. Luckily we caught it early and it came right off with a little mineral spirits.

 

[parad1mg]

vandals are just pr**ks who are jealous of our rides... y'know whats another PITA? people that hang around your car and sometimes they even lean on it as if its their own!! :fire: WTF are they thinking?! it just pisses the cr*p out of me..

 

[Millertime1987]

The ones i hate are the thiefs that take Chrome air caps off my wheels. Pisses me off so much i have bought like 4 sets of them and all 4 stolen. I hate teens sometimes.

 

[ATiredExplorer]

I hate when people lean on your rides too! But this one time I was playing a show in a club, my alarm was going off constantly because of the loud music and I didn't know and when I walked outside to put my amp back in my explorer, the guy guarding the door said he hit my car because it kept on alarming. I told him to not do it again. And as if hitting it makes it stop.....idiot. Luckily there were no dents. Now I just keep my alarm off. At night when I used to keep it on, a loud truck will pass by or even if you tap it just a bit, it will alarm!

Anyone know how to adjust the sensor?

And when I was like in 7th grade riding the bus, this 6th grader had the chrome air caps in his pocket and he bragged about stealing them from some car. Apparently it was the cool thing to do because there were a lot of others in my school that did it as well. I thought it was pretty pointless haha.

 

[Paraphoe]

Yea, stealing the chrome air caps was also the thing to do back in the 6th grade by me as well. What a bunch of idiots.
