JA at a match

[gaboon]

I went to a match today and park maybe 3/4 of a car length farther in to get on more level ground. There is plenty of parking and I leave to to do meets and greets with friends. I come back some JA pulled behind me and parked tailgate down sticking in the road a bit too. Now I can't get my stuff out of the back. I'm at my car just steaming mad the guy comes back to get something out of his truck and looks at me and proceeded about his business. I say something just acted like he didn't hear me. Never before has this happened at any match or a regular outing at the range. I just left and took the high road because I was ready to make scene. Sorry for the rant.

Matches are no different than everyday life...you run across some great folks and you run across JA's. Hopefully the JA's will always be in the minority.

You could have cut the valve stems off his tires before you left. Just sayin

Thought about it. Tires too just 3 of them that insurance won't pay for it.

Blocked you in? Uncool.

So how did you leave? And if you could leave, why couldn't you repark and unload?

I am a delivery truck driver who has to deal with the way that folks drive and park every day of my working life.

It is my contention that a full 30% of the population are brain dead when it comes to parking, and have absolutely no clue that there is a problem with them blocking traffic, trapping other vehicles, or leaving their vehicles in a loading zone. Usually the larger the pick-up, the lower the IQ. jd

I had hit my level of DA for the week and my thoughts would have been something else besides shooting
