What the fuck is up with people? Out of no where, this guy tries his best to run me off the road this morning. I couldve easily zipped away from his truck but I was at my offramp and I had to be at work for a short while. Before we reached the light at the end off the offramp he brake checked me several times. I don't know what his problem was as I had been cruising in the middle lane. The light turned green and I let him get ahead to the point where I missed the next light while he made it. He pulled over and waited. My girlfriend was with me and went through the backseat and got her handgun as we were headed to tbe range after lunch. He fell in behind me but I know the city like the back of my hand and lost him. Unfortunately, as I left the backstreets he saw me pull into one of the facilities I work at and followed me in. I had the pistol on my lap but remembered the ruger sticker on his rear window. I didn't wan t to go there anyway. I had handed my phone to my girlfriend and she had called security who was waiting at the front. He bugged out. I was shaking I was so pissed. I shot pretty well at the range though and think the GF may be a keeper after watching her dive through the backseat without a second thought. Anyway, that was my adventure for the day. Oh yeah. Stopped at Bass Pro for my dogs weekly field trip and they were out of whatever rounds you need.

these days there are a lot of things that can set people off. You have to consider where they are at when they go off like that. They could be running on too many Monsters/Bulls, pshycotropics that haven't kicked in yet, some other problem messing with their head, hormones/roids even. That was extreme though. Hope he comes to his senses. Be safe and you were blessed to have someone watch your back.

My credo: do not EVER go around fucking with people because you NEVER know who you're fucking with and what they're capable of. (the reason for this is that I know what I'm capable of when pushed...)

That was my first thought. The police station, jail and courts are right there in that part of the city. Even though his truck was nice, he had two of those fake bullet hole stickers on his tailgate. For a moment I wondered if 147 grain 9mm would look the same.

Ximmy? if that's you in your avata?r I am then in love....once again.

Will guys, I have a camera that points towards the from that is on all the time it takes I don't know how many frames per second and when ever I see something that is a danger to me or others I swivil toward the danger zone, this always stops what ever is going on, once they see the camera.....been using it for the past eight years.

I like this credo and try to follow it best myself as well. Road rage is a different animal though, I think. People who have road rage often will not stop, even if it means their lunch money is going taken in the process. Heck, I had a small black gal go bananas on me, not only did I outweigh her by at least 50 lbs, I could have ran her over if I had the rage too.

A recipe for disaster is two people having road rage against each other, nothing good can end there.

Glad to hear you and the Lady are OK, milehi, and very glad you both kept your cool through the ordeal.

Usually, generally, however I found out many years ago that when my subconscious gets pissed, look out* - I scare myself. lol The thing is there are others even crazier than me and to survive sometimes one has to get crazier than they are, and the trick is to quickly demonstrate to the crazy ones that you can out-crazy them by a long shot - however with bona fide psychopaths this approach will just not work so be advised.

*which is why I take pains not to get into a position where my subconscious gets pissed...yet another reason I have the dogs I do

I agree with everything you said, more or less you go completely outta your mind, and it takes a toll on your body/mind, unless you are a psychopath.
