51 years old single vehicle motorcycle wreck early this morning, we recently had a fallen out, that I wish we could have made amends
he was a private person, and I am not in the position to do much, but I am concerned because he has an arsenal at home, no alarm, no safe, i'm talking 100k rounds of ammo, and 25k in firearms , as many of you know its common that someone upon hearing things like this break into the house, I just hate to see, I spoke with a neighbor of his that also knows whats in his house, and a few friends

Her sister has two boys, one is 17yo and the other is 21yo. Both kids were pretty much raised by the X-Box while mom did whatever the hell stupid skanks do. The 17yo had no high school credits because mom didn't bother making him go to school.
My friend took both boys in and had the older one get a job and the younger one enrolled in school. Both of them are lazy ignorant poops with trailer park mentalities and all they want to do is be slobs and play video games.
I stopped by to check on her on the way back to town the other night and both boys were arguing with her about something so I excused myself from the room and left. She told me later that the boys were bitching about not wanting to clean dishes that night and that they were yelling at her about it. The next day I stopped by and the 17yo was sitting on the couch playing video games. i walked in, said nothing, and cleaned the whole damn kitchen in about 30 minutes then walked out not saying anything. Later on I stopped by again because we both needed to go up to Phoenix to run errands. I went in the living room while she got her clothes and war paint sorted out. The 17yo was sitting on the couch watching TV. I told him I wanted to tell him something so he shut the sound off...
Me: I want to tell you a parable
Him: OK
Me: There was a big old grey wolf walking around the woods, he was old but still had all his teeth and was a mean SOB. There was a female wolf walking through the woods too. Two hyenas attacked the female wolf right in front of the old grey wolf. What do you think happened?
Him: Dunno, the old wolf probably kicked the crap out of the hyenas.
Me: That would be a logical conclusion, since the laws of nature would pretty much require him to. Do you think a mean old wolf would have a problem tearing two little hyenas to shreds?
Him: Probably not, wolves are bigger and meaner animals
Me: Yup, the wolf would tear both of them up easily. Do you know what the moral of the story is?
Him: No
Me: The moral of the story is that if you and your brother every gang up on your aunt again over something as stupid as not wanting to wash dishes, its gonna be a really bad day to be a damn hyena. If I knew that was what you hyenas were arguing about last night I would dragged both your * out in the back yard and we woulda had a "talk". Do you understand me?
Him: Yes sir
I then explained that doing chores is part of being in a home, everyone has to pull their weight. I never raised my voice or anything, just had a polite yet blunt conversation with him. Apparently * boy ran to:his brother later with some story about how I was intimidating him and he went screaming and bitching to my friend. She got pissed at me for getting involved and I told her I would have been a prick to NOT get involved. She continued to be a * to me over the past several days and blame me for the crap. After trying to explain real man decisions to no avail I told her I was done dealing with her. I stand by my decision to intervene when some assclowns are disrespecting a woman, and if the woman can't respect that then she's just a trailer park * and not worth helping. One less person jamming up my schedule with drama
Lesson learned
if the woman can't respect that then she's just a trailer park * and not worth helping. One less person jamming up my schedule with drama
Your conclusion is the right one about the woman.[^] Your actions relating to her are correct. [^][^][^] Enjoy your new-found free time use it to shoot targets more often.
One of the most difficult lessons I have ever had to accept is "YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID.
