These are wild

Last winter
I had a guy pass me in a school zone off Arlington Ave, next to a stopped bus. I flashed my brights at him. He proceeds to get out of his car the next 3 stop lights and yell at me and flail his hands all around wanting me to get out and fight .

I calmly sat in my truck and waited for his hissy fits to stop while having my firearm close by

Luckily he didn't do anything too stupid

When people get stupid around me I take out my phone and hold it like I am taking a video of them. Sometimes I am taking a video and sometimes I am just holding the phone. It doesn't seem to matter. They always swear and actually start behaving.
I try to get them while they are still in their car and driving stupid - they usually stay there.

Kinda related but not in this state, apparently people are firing at motorists on the interstates now and then running into the woods.

Highway "snipers" are one of the worst scenarios for feeling helpless. I remember going to and from work in downtown Col OH during that sniper scare. Wasn't fun.

At least road rage you feel you have some control.

I was in Greece from June 5-15 and rented a car in Athens and on Crete. It is interesting how aggressive and pushy Greek drivers are yet there were no arguments, fist fights, or people being shot.

Same in NJ.

Lived on the Kentucky side for a bit, it's some thick country down there. Not surprised the manhunt is still on. Even with helo and drone support, it's not easy combing that much woods.

Was in the car pick up line at my child's school today and had been waiting for 15 or 20 minutes. As the line moves forward, the vehicles that line up are on a few different intersecting streets and alternate pulling into the main pickup area. One car from this street, one car from that street. There's a common etiquette established and it's worked perfectly until today.

The vehicles in front of me are alternating normally like any other day.
I pull up and the person at the opposite side of the intersection goes, then I start pulling behind to take my turn.

The vehicle that was behind the one that had just turned, darts into the intersection honking and I can hear someone screaming through an open window.

This woman jumps out of her car and just starts screaming at me. What the fu*k do you think "you is" doing? I was here first, move yo fu*king a**, You ain't been waiting in line you just pulled up, etc. I calmly said I'm just taking my turn pulling forward and to have a great day.

She walks close to my driver door and says "I should shoot you in your fu*king face".

I nodded and said thanks for letting me know, have a great day. She screamed fu*k you again and got in her car. I backed up to let her go first since it was so important to her and she circled around and tried to get in front of the vehicles behind me to intimidate me? I'm not certain.

So yeah, people have lost their damn minds. Super fun.

She's lucky. I would have called the cops on her for that threat to shoot. You are more gracious than I am .

Then again I have a very low threshold for threats like that.

School admin was notified immediately and came out and talked to both parties.

Come to find out she is employed at a local daycare and was picking up one of their children for after school care.

She is no longer allowed on that schools property and who knows what will happen with her employment. But she is the victim, she made that clear.

It's tough to keep your composure. You did well.
