This homeless guy spit on my car...

MYV · 05-09-2010, 05:03 PM

So I live in downtown LA and there are homeless people everywhere asking for change. Well yesterday I was pulling out of a parking spot in a supermarket and this homeless guy comes up in front of my door and asks for money. If you live in downtown LA you become desensitized pretty fast to this kinda thing. I get 2 or 3 homeless people begging for change a day and have long since learned to just ignore them.

Well I turn on my engine and begin to pull away and this guy just flips out and starts cussing me out. I think ok....whatever and just keep pulling out. Then he flips me off and spits on my car. A huge brown monster wad of spit. It hits my hood and I see red

I hit the brakes and start yelling/trying to get out of my car to confront him. My friend in the passenger seat wouldn't let me out and the guy ran away from the area pretty fast.

I'm not sure what I would have done if my friend had let me out of the car but I was ready to crack someones head open.
Damn. That guy pissed me offfff.

Ugh just wanted to vent.

GAM3OVR85 · 05-09-2010, 05:06 PM

damn! that sux bro, i would've killed him.

There is one homeless guy i see everyday when i go to school, he always asks for change, once on a nice day my windows were open, car is clean, he asked me for change....i was like sorry i dont have (i usually give if i have some change), the guy takes a step back, checks out my car then says "5 bucks?" LOL!!

Should start packing.

j/k

That would be bad. But I feel your pain.

cotmfk · 05-09-2010, 05:13 PM

It sucks... but it sucks more to be homeless.

i got a good laugh at this one, haha the guy from indiana telling the guy from LA to move. JK JK i ive never been to indiana it may be cool

turbo6shooter · 05-09-2010, 05:18 PM

Next time, ask him for $50 before he hits you up because you need a tank of premium fuel and see what he says...

MCMLXXXIX · 05-09-2010, 05:19 PM

Dont even.

You wouldn't have done anything.

onefastman · 05-09-2010, 05:30 PM

That is when you door check him as you pull out.

John 070 · 05-09-2010, 05:34 PM

I had an incident a while back on Watts St. approaching the Holland Tunnel where I refused to give a squeegee man any money. He put a forgot 14" red scratch on my 1/4. We got into a discussion at the office, $1 would have prevented it, but why should you have to pay for something you didn't want (dirty a** water making the windshield even worse). Confont him physically and maybe get stuck with a needle turning the situation into a greek tragedy....

I335 · 05-09-2010, 05:40 PM

Being homeless is no excuse for that sort of behavior, but he certainly is in a much worse position than you are. I'd be pissed too, but only until I got my car cleaned off.

Trojan4evr · 05-09-2010, 05:49 PM

Yeah man downtown LA is crazy. I used to live there right across Convention Center and Staples. Pico and Fig. It was clalled Citylights on Fig. HAHAHA good times dude. But yeah there are alotta homeless people there. what can you do? ITS LA LA LAND

nyknickfan · 05-09-2010, 05:50 PM

That sucksss...I'm in Newark and deal with that kind of behavior a lot...it's worse when homeless people ask you for change and block entrances to buildings you need to enter...can't really avoid confrontation...kinda reminds me of that South Park episode "Night of the Living Homeless"....change?! change?! loll

Brey335i · 05-09-2010, 06:03 PM

I avoid this situation by actually keeping some change in the car for this reason

wtf ive never had that happen to me in Newark. usually theyre right outside the drive-thru and creeping-ly asking you for shit. and they know youll ignore them so they dont do anything

last time i flew into a burger king parking lot and the dude comes up to my car and goes "i saw how you whipped it in there" and asked me for like 75 cents to go see his mother. i didnt really give a shit and just gave him it and when we walked out of the restaurant we saw him walking with a bag of beer LOL

lol yah the drive-thru experiences def happen more often...I got a few similar experiences myself haha...but you're right...they don't do anything even if you ignore them

I know I have the right to bear arms...I just don't believe its worth putting myself at risk because of a bum...that's just me though

JayKay335i · 05-09-2010, 06:36 PM

Ehhhh. In front of a building? I'd knock him square in the jaw and walk inside the building if he in anyway violated my personal space

I think he is old school, I do think he was talking about guns, but maybe now-a-days it is more commonly called "carrying". IMHO, back in the seventies "packing" was short for "packing heat". "Packing heat" might not be understood today.

But "packing his bags" would probably be a better idea. Sounds like a bad area to have a nice car in. Lots of worse things can happen then someone spitting on your car.

I am pretty sure newborn babies cant purchase firearms in most areas of the US.
