Kid at school was jumping in my truck and threw trash in it

wasnt attempting to run him over. i wouldnt have either. I was just getting him off the back of my truck and thats exactly what i did

 

Put some bear traps in the bed so he doesn't do it again.

 

he wasn't attempting to hurt him just to get him off his property

 

Hell I would have thrown it in reverse too....and kept going

only kidding

But serves that jackass right. course i would have gone out and pulled him off the truck and onto the ground and go from there

 

i didnt attempt to cause bodily harm to him. if he would have jumped off i wouldnt have backed up. i would have just let it go. in no way was i attempting to harm him

 

i really wouldnt give a rats ass if he was jumping up and down in my truck bed...

id just stare at him and wonder why he had any reason to be doing it.

you were the dick for driving off and damn well knowing that it isnt safe for someone to be standing up while the vehicle is in motion.

you got something against the kid? or what?

 

lol. its a high school. all we have is 1 campus supervisor. i have no idea where she was

 

he is kind of a dick head but i let a lot of stuff slide. when someone starts screwing with my truck im gonna get pissed off

 

What would you do in that kind of situation?

 

It's the possibility of what could have happened that makes it dangerous. What happens if you gassed it right as the kid jumped off? If you ran him over?

Sure it doesn't sound like much, and call us stupid all you want (Even though you asked if you were overreacting)
Just sit back and imagine how you'd feel explaining to someone's mother that you killed their son because he was irritating you.

 

Yes, you over reacted. Nobody got hurt. Count yourself lucky and resolve not to do that again.

You may feel it wasn't a big deal, but it most certainly would be a big deal if you were sitting in a courtroom with a judge and jury and a bunch of pictures of someone's split head being displayed.

Sometimes surviving the fight isn't the end of your problems. There is a city firefighter in my town up on felony assault charges for beating a guys head in (literally). They both maintain that the other guy started it. At this point it does not matter, one guy didn't have a scratch on him, the other guy has screws in his eye sockets now. Once he hit the ground it was no longer self defense. I wouldn't want to be in that guys shoes right now.

 

lol. now i need anger management? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

 

Did this happen at recess ?

 

if you don't jump around on someones truck (while they're in it no less), you can't get tossed out of the back, pretty simple. I see nothing wrong with what you did at all.

 

I was not going fast enough to run him over. if i kept going i probably would have

 

I call BS. That is just not humanly possible. At least not for any human who CARES about his personal property.
