You're on a MtnMan roll for starting threads that should be in the funny picture/video thread.
That said, I have a friend that was lighting fire works off when he was a kid and got yelled at. So he lit some fireworks off later at the dude's house that yelled at him. This tatted up, ripped, no-shirt wearing Mexican gang banger runs out of his house to give chase, catches my friend, and proceeds to break all the neighbor's clay planters on the porch with my friend's face.
Guess the Mexican gang banger wasn't growing pot in those planters then!
I had some kids shooting paintball guns at cars and us when I was riding, they hit my passenger, l called the police and the kids parents were given a court date for their kids due to placing others at risk. The officer that gave them a ticket also rides. Parents said that they did not know the kids had the paintball guns out.
He handled it better than most would have. I would have called the cops on him.

Considering this happened in the UK the biker is lucky he didn't get arrested for "inflicting emotional distress on a criminal".
I may or may not have tossed crab apples are cars too. That may or may not have resulted in a car full of gentlemen chasing us with a baseball bat.

When I was a kid, growing up in the snow belt of SW NY state, it was snowballs (may or may not have been aimed to closely coincide with passing of various school buses)...
When I lived in NY, I commuted by bicycle, and one day I got 'paintballed' at close range when two teens pulled up right next to me and the passenger shot me in the arm. Man, that hurt!!
Kids will be kids. When you are a kid, throwing stuff at vehicles on the street as they go by is something that everyone tries out at least once. That being said, I have a funny story of my own.....
There was a young girl in my neighborhood throwing rock as cars driving by in front of her house. My wife and I just so happened to drive by during this rock throwing event and the wife was driving. A rock thrown by the girl hit the car and my wife immediately slammed on the brakes and jumped out of the car to confront the girl. The girl see's her coming so she runs in her house thinking she will be "Safe". My wife goes to the front door and politely knocks. The girls mom comes to the door and my wife explains the situation and the mom is fuming pissed at her kid. They come to a resolution that the punishment should be raking the leaves in our front yard, it was fall and our yard was full of leaves. The next day the Mom and Girl show up and the girl proceeds to rake up the leaves in our yard sobbing the whole time while the Mom was cracking the whip on getting it done. Magically, we never seen that girl throwing rocks at cars passing by anymore.

This is the way American should be. The way America is: My baby didn't throw no rocks, he's a good boy.

That deserves calling the cops, every time! A good friend of mine lost his right eye due to that shit.
