Today i drove to the grocery store. As i pulled up to park, my mother called. So i sat in my van to talk. As i sat, i watched customers coming & going. A couple in their 60's came out, loaded their groceries, got in & shut the doors. Then the man opened his door & rolled a 1/2 full coke can under the door onto the parking lot. At this point, i was walking by. I picked it up, holding it out of their view, and knocked on his window. He rolled it down. I said, excuse me, you dropped this. There is a trash can by the front door if you want to throw it away. He threw the can at me , splattering coke all over my shirt & said, you throw it away. I picked it up & threw it in their car. Then walked toward the entrance. They both started cussing, got out, and came toward me. He came at me as if to fight. While she kept screaming that he had epilepsy. When he got right infront of me he flipped his cigarette in my face. I called him a mf, and raised my fist as if to hit him. He stepped back several feet. Next, a woman with a 4-5 year old boy in her suv was parking & overheard it all. She yelled out, there are children present. Can we stop this ? I ignored her. The couple got in their car. And i walked in the store. I went to the service desk to speak with the mgr. The woman with the boy , ( now sitting in the cart) walked up to me, and said, you had no right to do that. I said, did you hear and see both sides. She said yes. You shouldnt have said a thing. I said, its as much my world as theirs. And you are interjecting . its none of your business. She replied loudly, infront of me, her son, & the mgr, you're an asshole. I said lady i didn't say one cuss word in that confrontation your complaining about. But your calling me an asshole infront of your son. The mgr said, stop or i'll call the police. I said, call them. Maybe they should hear what she said. Then i looked at the boy and said, did you hear that ? Did you hear what your mommy just called me ? I was so shook up, i left without buying anything. Then i wondered if i should report it. And decided to. As i told the police, they said the man and i were both at fault. And could both be cited. I asked what i should have done. He said, call us to report it. I asked what they would have done if i had. He said, unless we witness it,all we can do is take a report. Maybe i acted inappropriately, but wasn't i basicly in the right & them in the wrong? And if the guy has epilepsy should he be driving ? And shouldn't the police have checked into that ?
if it bothers you too much
