If You Don't Like Train Horns, Why Do You Live By The Tracks...?

Well now this is a different subject; I don't agree- Sorry to all of you who are against confrontation, but I do not agree.

A bully that is ignored or in other terms, permitted to get away with their behavior will do it to somebody else.

Bullying must be stopped- If somebody challenged me like the person who was; they had better have some sort of Tank, arsenal, or army backing there threats.

Standing on public property minding your own buisness never got anyone in any trouble, in my books.

To avoid confrontation, you should have told him... Okay, by the way the number is 9-1-1. Invite them to call the police. If your in the right, does it matter if the police are called anyway?

But allowing bullies to get away with bad behavior- Pretend he was standing in the cafeteria Line and he jsut got robbed of all his money- Same song, Same type of behavior.

Let's answer it the same way: Walk away and pretend nothing happened?

Not me, not ever.

Amen brother !!!!!!!!!!!!

Gee Kevin,

Your reply makes you sound like a real bully. 

I say to the railroads "gee, if you don't like dealing with concerned nimbys, maybe you should move to a desert island and play choo choo there where no one will  be  bothered "

Agreed!

 

Ideally what I'd like to happen is we talk with this guy and explain that trains are going to blow there horns reguardless of whether I wave or not.

AMTK - he isn't going to give you the time of day or listen, either.  He has a wad stuck in his craw and you would be just talking to a wall, possibly a dangerous wall.  People like this don't want to hear the other side.  They have it set in their mind and don't want to listen to opposing arguments. 

Think about it!  And I still think your Dad did the best thing.  Don't waste your energy at the very least.
