I'd have run the F****r over, but then I have a small anger problem......

**K5 750** · 28th March 2009, 17:43

So what did you end up doing? If it was me my blood would have boiled and i would have wanted to knock him off, but you got a good point about the reckless driving thing. I do think it is amazing you saw it again. Good luck hope you get your bike back.

Id follow him quietly, at the first lights stop, id jump out, grab him by the helmet, rip him off and kick his fuckin head in till he stopped moving. Im an angry person though, but mate I would have made damn sure I got my hands on him and physically ripped him off the bike and smashed him. Ive had fights with bikers who have all their gear, helmet etc on before, they dont win.

**meteor** · 28th March 2009, 17:56

so what did u do???

**Renegade** · 28th March 2009, 18:02

Im also assuming you didnt have a phone other wise you would have rung the cops by then.

yip, i would have picked a good spot on the road with no witnesses around and nothing for him to hit himself on and when he slowed down a bit rammed him off my bike, fuck it, i dont care what the morally corrupt law says.

Im prepared to take responibility for my actions.

I wonder if the cops would do you for smashing your own bike up?

**Harvd** · 28th March 2009, 18:06

Wow thats tricky, i was tryn to visualise what i would do and my only idea that felt right would be to stop behind him at lights and rip him off by his helmet and well beat the shit outa him, and citizens arrest his ass! but as the victims of crime seem to be persecuted harder than crims in this fucked up pc world its probably not the best idea. but in the heat of the moment id do that

As I caught up with him, I was kinda not thinking straight just shit what am i gonna do. I followed without causing suspiscion, I reached for the mobile straight away, it was flat (had been working 1 hour before). I reached for the camera I happen to have with me next - the memory card was full

(had been used up on the relatives 1 hour before where I had just come from)

Next I reached for the gun, no bullets left SHIT (I had used them up on two policeman 1 hour before) .......No wait that was a JOKE!

All I could do was continue following him, trouble is cars were getting in my way and at one point turning right onto SH17 through the town where it narrows from 2 lanes to 1 I cut this lady up something cronic, I was just focused on staying with the theif....unfortunately my driving suffered for it.
After losing him, I looked around the local area, down side streets, asked bystanders etc etc no luck. When I got back home later I called police a crime was being committed (well it was!) hoping they would finish eating there donuts and search perhaps. I've heard nothing though. Later tonight I went back to have another look around the area, I saw two cop cars parked on the road just where I had lost the theif. They were attending to a guy fallen off his pushbike!!

Some you win some you dont I suppose
