Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire confrontation at car show

Took my car to the local car show today. Left the truck at home, didn't want to deal with two vehicles. Wonderful day everybody is very nice and polite till right before the conclusion when these "hispanic" boys were slobbering all over my car. Finally they left or so I thought.

I turn around and look at my car and one of them has opened the door and was sitting in the drivers seat. My son had already seen them and was headed over.

I then lost my temper. I screamed at him to get his f'nn ass out of my car as I got out of my chair and headed to my car. He just stares at me with a stupid look while his silent compadre also stood there. I tell him one more time to get his f'nn ass out of my car. He then complies. But just stands there.

I then tell both of them to get the hell out of here. they move a little ways a way. But I'm so angry that is not good enough for me. I told them again to get the hell out of here, that I mean you need to leave this area.

They sorta milled about and I then said don't you understand English? The one that had got in my car then says "I can speak English better than you" as he's backing away

I then said then get the f' out of here then. They were walking away and the guy then commented. " I have more money than you and can buy whatever I want"
Then made a gesture with his hand as if fanning money out.

I made a big mistake with my situational awareness. The silent one kept putting himself between me and the talking punk. And my worse error I didn't notice he was packing a pistol and that they were tanked up on something because their eyes were pinned out.

My son was the one who notice and told me later.

When I left the car show I made double damn sure no body followed me home.

Ruined my day. I got so angry that I feel terrible.

There's a real possibility these may have been more than just ill mannered punks, especially since one was healed for sure.

That spic might have been right.

The only thing he may have been right about is having more money than me

You need a CBD gummy, pard

I'd be putting up trail or security cameras to hit the road behind where you park and see if a strange vehicle keeps passing by.

Make sure you clue your wife in to carry a pistol and have it handy for use and not tucked away in a purse when driving and to make sure she's looking around while sitting at red lights.

Don't touch any paper or hanky stuck under a windshield or in a car door handle when going to the car.

Don't get out of the car and leave the door open or car running if you hear a bump in the back after getting in.

Look up and down the road for any suspicious vehicle sitting nearby on the street when you stick your head out the door.

I'd discuss it with a local officer.

And you didn't get an idea of the car the old Mexico dimocraps were driving.

Sounds like John Wick 1. You don’t have a new puppy do you?

Lol

I'd pay close attention the next several days.

Never let your guard down.

Sounds like car “jugging”.

One more reason I don’t live in Texas. You were right in your assessment at the car show, but you don’t know how far they will push it. At some point you need to be able to shoot them or deal with a bunch of illegals that don’t care what they do to you.

I would be sleeping with one eye open and driving with one eye in the mirror…

I knew there would be some [bleep] on here wondering why I got so mad at a guy getting in my car at a car show.

Are you not aware of car show etiquette rule number one. Keep your hands off the vehicle. idiots poking around with expensive and often very fragile cars can due a lot of damage. Has anyone priced a paint job lately. you just don't screw around with a mans car.

By the way I was healed. and stood far enough away I could draw.

You might want to check it for an Air Tag.

I wouldn't worry too much, young mescans are going to talk [bleep] it's in their nature.

Thanks for the tip. That might have been why they were around so long.

Like picking up an expensive gun off the table at a gun show and snapping it to try the trigger....without asking permission.

Don't blame you for being livid.

Well, I left NM in the seventh grade but I know how cocky they can be.

how longs the batteries on those? Months…

May be their thing…

Let you forget…

Few months from now you are out eating at the golden corral and they come to your house ( or where you store it) for the car…

No confrontation that way…

Actually, it doesn’t seem that anyone was giving you (bleep). But since you brought it up, wouldn’t it have accomplished the same, perhaps with less drama, to just tell them to please get out and not touch the car? I’m sure you are the exception, but it seems that some folks are just looking for a reason to go off on somebody.

Beat me to it about the airtag. I hope you have a secure garage.
