You're just damned lucky the kid wasn't a bit more street smart and didn't blow a .38 sized hole in your gut.

Floridians are complete farking morons, except the ones I meet on this forum.

****ing *******s

Seems like you did good.. And it IS a good thing he didn't have a gun.. People suck.

you got lucky...

glad to hear you got the little $hit, and i doubt the kid would have even thought to use a gun in THAT situation....haha anyways like i said, glad you caught the little $hit!:gungrin:

Go easy there Jesda.
70% of the people you will meet here are from north of the Mason Dixon. :bouncy: Guess that explains it........

You're just damned lucky the kid wasn't a bit more street smart and didn't blow a .38 sized hole in your gut.

Or that they didn't press charges for assaulting a minor...

It wouldnt be the first gun experience ..but yeah it was dumb but i was twisted up that someone was touching my car ...(didnt say I wasnt armed either) I walked out aiming thats why he didnt run ..and three well trained dogs ready to go behind me on a stay command ,plus the old lady was in the house with the ak ...I wasnt so concerned....never needed guns up north at all,but now sheesh in fla (not to knock it ) but everyones got guns...

eh screw it Im not gonna sweat it now the people will think Im nuts and will steer clear of me

I don't blame you. I refuse to be scared of these punks to the point where I'm gonna watch them steal from me. Yes be careful and think but sometimes azzkickin flashes at that moment.

Kudos.

Great anecdote! :highfive: If more citizens would stand up for themselves we'd eventually enjoy less crime.

The punk saw the emblem and thought that he had a right to take it. People like this just don't get the concept that you have to WORK for something, as opposed to just grabbing it off of somebody's property. Hopefully you successfully slammed that notion out of the aforementioned punk's skull permanently.

Good takedown.

Yeah, I agree. Kudos to sticking up for your property...maybe next time the perp sees something he wants, he'll think about this example.

I can't get over the fact that his mom beat him in the driveway. She and you taught him a good lesson.

I'm going to steal a Cadillac ornament so I better make sure I have a gun for protection.

Florida is the New York of the south, and I say that with my sincerest apologies to the good Northeasterners I've met on this forum.

And that's all I'll say about that.

What has happened to Florida in the last 15 years reminds me of the Eagles song "The Last Resort".

Good stuff, man, just let me know when you move up here. I got to see some of that place when I came home.

sorry I haven't been up on for a while ...this little punks mom gave me a hundred to drop it ...Id like to drop a brick on this little shitbags head but such is life ....I pocketed the bill ,walked in the garage and laughed ,I Got a new emblem off of ebay for 15 bux..Now my next trick will be to sell this house and move back to good old NY...I actually dig it here but the cost of living compared to the terrible pay is no good .No bad things really to say about the state except for a few things but that is my own issues..not saying anywhere is better , But my chick took a 75 grand (yes thats correct ) dump in pay moving here ..100 gs a year in NY for the same exact job as here for 25 grand ...not an issue we will go back..

shes buying me a new emblem tommorow...will the v emblem fit this car ?

Not a good idea to put a :v: emblem on a non-:v: Then you're just another poser and V-Badger. If you would like a :v: on your car then buy a V.

I believe the correct term is poseur. It's kind of a double-barreled effect. Anybody who uses poseur is a poseur themselves.

What's this about poseurs now?

A poser is a model for an artist. A poseur is a pretender. Since it is pretentious to use the French poseur, it makes the user of poseur a poseur. Poser is hillbilly for poseur.

http://www.ciws.info/vbadger.jpgYes but, if one puts a :v: on a Civic won't it then go very much faster?

Please try and understand that out of respect for the V, some have used it to show my caddy is more than just a regular caddy. Some of them aren't looking for a poseur V but a recognition that my car is performance orientated. If you see a V on a Eldo, it's not trying to be a V but instead a Caddy that has mods. If you V guys are so upset about it, what would you like other caddies to show that I'm not your regular caddy?

Two long, black strips of rubber from every stop sign/light ...... :D

Very good point.:thumbsup:

i just like the Vs caddy emblem Im not gonna put a v emblem on it ...I dig the newer crest and wreath so blow me

I understand what your saying because who's gonna mistake a 96Eldo for a CTS-V. I would'nt put a V on my Eldo unless I could represent a performance vehicle worthy of a V. Now when we talk about posers(a regular CTS), which is a character that shouldn't present itself as a V should just except what you have and represent it as what it is but that's a issue between the CTS styled vehicles.:D
