My cousin's husband was out walking their dog on Saturday, when someone was revving, and revving their engine up the narrow street from him. The streets where they live are so narrow two cars can't pass each other, if there are cars parked on the sides of the road.

The car came flying down the street doing about 65-70 mph, Al screamed "SLOW DOWN!!" and the driver slammed on the brakes. Out jumps a teen age girl who lives around the corner from him, carrying a rolled up magazine. She runs up to him and smacks him in the face with the magazine. He grabbed it from her and whacked her in the arm with it, to show her it can hurt, but no way as hard as she hit him.

Out of the car jumps two other guys who proceed to beat the crap out of Al. He landed in the hospital overnight, just for looking out for the safety of others in the neighborhood.

how old is al?

thats a terrible thing to happen, and al shouldn't suffer because of it. might i suggest a nice powerful stun gun, or a blast of mace to the face of the 2 punks.

Al is 49 and has two teen-aged sons around the same age as this girl, so it's not like he is just being crotchety, he was worried about the younger kids in the area if they ran in the street.

I know I used to yell slow down at the speeders by my parents house, but I won't do it where I live...now I won't do it at all.

I'm just glad that they weren't carrying guns....

Out here, you could legaly shoot them as long as you only shoot them once. (Gut shot...not attempted murder)

My dad carries pistols. My mom and sister both carry shotguns in their vehicles and pistols in their purses.

I prefer wasp spray and a knife but I do got a nice parabellum 9mm for special occasions.

Press charges.....for what? So they can get probation with deferred adjudication?

Screw that.....let Al gut shoot one of em so he can get probation with deffered adjudication and the satisfaction of knowing those p*ssies will think twice. (Have him watch "Gran Torino" for inspiration)

I dont know about that, three against one,, seems pretty rational to use a weapon for protection under that circumstance,,,three people beating one man can easily lead to death,,, but it would have been a senseless act still and even more senseless for young folks to die for doing something so incredibly dangerous and stupid

Adding guns to that would have been a tragedy beyond comprehension.


Disrespectful teens. A pet peeve of mine.


Hope he presses charges and carries through with it in court.

He made a police report, but I'm not sure about pressing charges yet. He recognized the girl but not the guys, so I don't know if they found the guys. My aunt was very upset when I was talking to her.

Eric, they live just outside of Plano.

I would press all charges on the girl until she caved and gave up the names of the other two. I'm betting it was a drug induced incident, but that isn't an excuse. Go to the full extent of the law and if she is a minor sue the family. Make their lives hell. The girl will spill the beans on the other two to try and cut a deal. Pretend like that is going to work, find them out. Press full charges on them and sue them or their families and carry it out until their eyes bleed.

You shot out of there in your revved-up sports car like a speeding bullet.

Also, what was the dog doing all that time? (Blast you, Orator, you came in with your comment five hundreds of a second before me.) Was he using the extra time to chasing little kittens, licking itself, or making book with the neighbourhood dogs on the outcome of the fight?

This is not a joke, it's a condemning, scathing, sarcastic social comment. I used to live in a mining town, and there were regular unregulated dogfights on Friday nights. I organized letter-writing groups to the mayor to protest the practice, until we realized he can't read.

I would not think twice about shooting them. They would be the ones going to the hospital, not me.

Their dog is a standard schnauzer who has been trained to guard the home from intruders, but is used to watching his boys rough-house so I guess it really didn't get over-excited. I don't know for sure.

After reading all that was said here. I think more and more. That as bad as things are getting as far as the crimes go. And people thinking they are TOUGH. ( Like wow.2 young guys beating up a 49 yo ) That just proved to me that the both of them are sissy's. That the laws of yesteryears be brought back. And laws of other countries be instituted. You murder, you be put to death. You steal. Your hand be chopped off. You cheat on your spouse, and get caught. Both are flogged in public. You beat up an elder( Just to prove you are tough ) You publicly get beat up. For the drive by shooters. They have to go through a drive by spanking. I truly believe that the penalties for crimes now a days are too soft. In most cases by what I have observed. Prison is just a vacation to some people. Or a place to once again be reunited with their homies. Mike
