Is it bad that I want to see this guy bail?

Some idiot is practicing wheelies on his motorcycle in the church parking lot. Am I bad for wanting to see him bail?

And there's the reason! Idiot came back with a friend to videotape him doing stunts. Then he does them on the street as he's leaving. Seems he wanted to practice so he could do it on the street.

    No, but it's not his property. Do you honestly think that his family won't sue the church if he crashes?

    I think it is bad. Nothing wrong with good old clean fun.

    I couldn't possibly know what his family may or may not do. If it bothers you go out there and tell him to leave.


    He's already gone. Trust me, the area that I'm in, there would be a lawsuit. Regardless, it's disrespectful to go on somebody else's property to fool around, just because they have a parking lot.

    Not on private property though (unless it's your own) or at least if you were a member of the church who's property you were using.

    Why can't he go out to the track where it belongs? I have no problem with guys doing stunts on their own property or where they're meant to be done, but don't go to somebody else's property and be stupid.

    As a side note, you motorcycle drag racers are nuts! I mean, drag racing is a dangerous sport, but on a bike? Seriously, you must have a death wish!

    there is no track to stuct at..... its a parkin lot sport..... but granted most people that are serious and good at it always have written permission of the property owners to be there. so if he has permission then hey more power to ya. at least he is not on the street

    I had a buddy that went to his church parking lot with his new bike (didn't even have a license yet, just his permit). He was doing wheelies, came off the back, bike kept going and slammed into a pole. Totaled. I laughed so hard when he told me the truth of what happened.

    Just curios realspeed, have you crashed your bike racing yet?

    A coworker of mine got a call that his buddy's bike blew a fuel line, caught on fire and loss power, causing him to crash. His first words in the ambulance were "Have I stopped crashing yet?"

    Well good luck. Hopefully, the worst that will happen has already passed for you.

    They have one here too but they never close it. Maybe I should close it for them after I come enter. I'll have to call the bishop and see if he's ok with that.

    We could substitute "parking lot of an edifice used for ritualistic purposes" in its place, but I just don't want to type that much. [:D]

    I think that would still fall into the category of religious/faith topics...[;)][:0][:D]



    Well...maybe not "ritualistic"...heck, even folks with ADD can be ritualistic without practicing a religion...

    Yeah, I was going to say "religious" but then I realized that would defeat the purpose. Of a spiritual nature? No. For the purpose of worshiping? Nope.

    I'm stuck. Oh well. [:D]

    Could it be he is a member of the church and knew what times there would be no one there.

    Rather he do it in a Parking lot than on the road.

    Can't you hit him with your .308?

    He can't be moving that fast.

    Growing up we frequently dragged raced in the church parking lot. In the winter time it was donut city. Even got the Youth Pastor who lived in the parsonage out there doing donuts.

    I found it was easier to do donuts in reverse in my front wheel drive car.
