Life On my way home - Page 6

rfaulk34 · 05-20-2025, 08:49 PM

So today on my way home, i turn onto my street like any other normal day. One thing i've noticed over the last couple years is the dynamic of my neighborhood is changing a little bit. As i turn onto the street, i see a pickup truck stopped in the middle of the road (one way street with parking on both sides). As i stop about 10 feet behind the truck i notice a commotion to the right and see two pit bulls locked in a battle. A couple kids are kicking at the dogs trying to break them up. A couple are rushing around on the phone trying to call the police and animal control. I see someone approach the dogs with some kind of stick and start wailing on them a few times.

Nothing is phasing the dogs of course and i also notice a couple people just casually lounging on the step to the right of the ruckus. I didn't really think of it till now, but everyone involved up to this point is female. No guys around.

All this happened really quick, yet it seemed to go on for a long time. I'm watching the dogs and wincing a bit because i'm waiting for one of them to rip the other apart because they seem to have each other, at least partially, by the mouth.

Just then, to my left, i notice an older white man walk by my car with a gun in his hand. I don't recognize him but i'm thinking that he lives near there because he seems to be agitated and if you don't live there, why would you care that much?

Just to back track a little bit, i have a CCW and i had momentarily considered intervening but the entire time, it was only the dogs focused on each other. No other people were in danger. So this guy walks over to the dogs and by this time they had worked their way around the side of the truck, just out of my sight. The guy walks up, leans in, and then i hear two shots. I didn't see the dogs get hit, but they both limped away in opposite directions.

At that point, all the kids start freaking out but the adults still seem very calm. One lady up on the porch to the right even says to the guy, "thank you. i appreciate that". As the guy turns and walks back to where he came from, he says out loud, "i'm not afraid of any of you all".

Right after that, someone moves the truck blocking the street and i proceed on home, go in the house and tell my wife, don't ever ever ever let our dog out in the front without being out there with her, or better yet, don't ever let her out unless it's me taking her out. I tell her and my son the story and hear the sirens, so i walk back down there and give the police my statement.

So, how was your day, honey?

No amount of expanation could help you Arch. You made your point. Everyone thinks you're tough.

Now shut up and move along.

I just want to point out that I was stating you were trying too hard.

I have heard before that is something you can do when a dog is attacking something and out of control. It obviously worked.

dumbfaulk,

Wasn't the point.

Knowed 90%a the planet is more a man than you after readin the OP.

Dude,

Ya posted some tention ho shat.

It backfired, and showed ya for the douche ya are.

And in fact, you're such a douche ya didn't even realize that ya were postin crap that no normal man would ever admit.

Since that point, you've been unable ta defend your actions by any logical explanation, and rightfully so.

Take the L and move on.

Or, meet at the GB statue, and make your arguments.

I got a tendency ta react, directly.

Ain't here ta offend anyone, just tell it like it is.

Might be society isn't ready for that, way it is now.

Could be, I'm past my time.

Arch...

You are literally MAKING me point out how stupid you are. I've clearly explained what i did and why i did it.

Ok. Seriously. Here comes my defense of my actions. Straight up, no bullshit. Just for you.

I'm in the suburbs. Houses close together and lots of people, especially around 6pm on a warm evening. This isn't the inner city or the ghetto or a place where you would expect to see two pit bulls fighting.

Dogs fight. Shots are fired with lots of people around, many of whom are on the phone trying to get the police there or animal control to tend to the dogs.

Once shots are fired, the police ARE going to show up. Arch, there were a LOT of cops there. About 8 cruisers.

EVERYONE was talking to the police when i walked down there. This isn't somewhere where when the cops show up, everyone yells, "i ain't see shit!". Everyone.was.talking.to.the.cops.

I, me, personally, don't know any of the people that were involved but i sat in my car, with my gun holstered in my pocket, 10 feet away from the action.

I told the police exactly what i saw without trying to assess blame on anyone. i did it because that's where i live and my family could easy have been affected by it.

After reading this story, you clearly felt some kind of way. Whether you're trying to look tough or whether you're triggered by someone "ratting someone out", it doesn't matter. Like i said, you made your point. I took the time to indulge you and explain what i did and i don't really give two flying ****s about how you really feel about it.

I could move a mile or less to some nice condos, but it would be hard for me to be in the same neighborhood as my house after selling it. I'd miss it ey very time I went by. I know that's irrational, but we're all human and it's a factor.

It's in a great location I don't even want to think about what that house is worth. And I bet the land under the house is worth more than the structure

You're a true progressive, Arch.

I'm trying to recall. Where are you these days? If I recall properly, you moved out of my 'hood a long time ago, right?
