I will not sit idly by and watch injustices happen with out trying to do something...
I wonder some times, what would I do in that situation, would I just sit back and wish for the best.. or take some kind of action... I've been taking action. and I am happy to be that person. its been little things, all having to do with ghetto brats. it started with taggers I came across while walking my dog one night... do I let them go, turns around and walk the other way or do I act? they stopped tagging and started walking away as soon as i showed up... so I decided to fallow them from a distance.. they made a quick turn and hopped a few fences and were gone. I haven't seen them again.
another time as i was leaving my house some young kid (maybe 16yrs old) starts tagging up (with a sharpie) the street sign right by my home. they had that week just replaced those signs because of all the tagging that had been there.. would I just drive by and not do anything? NO! I started honking my horn and waving my arms and pointing at him, he freaked out and took off running through the desert as fast a he could.
So to get to this week, monday was valentines day and I was at the mall piking up my brother and his girlfriends after their date.. when I pull in i see two kids in a crowded area fighting, he's dragging her off and she's swinging her arms trying to beat him up. I circle back around to see her swinging fists and what looks like him slamming her head into the railing... with a group of their friends just standing around. umm.. HELLO!! so i pull up to the curb and start honking my horn .. yes like a crazy lady.... and the friends throw up their hands at me in a "what? this is nothing go away" kind of fashion. so I parked my car in the fire lane and took off running for a security guard.. in that area they're always around... one pulled up and when i told him what was going on he said "oh I thought I saw something", but he quickly took care of it, an I was very grateful for that. My plan that night had been to walk my dog around the mall a few times for exercise... after that i decided just to stay close to the mall entrance with my big mean(looking) doggy :)
I saw the girl from the fight a few times more that night, she was bragging and boasting about being from L.A. and being in a gang. I wonder if she knew how ugly she looked to me....
so I do this, I try not to stand for injustices.. little things maybe, but I am proud of who I am.
I will probably wake up one day to find that I am a crazy old cat lady who yells at all the kids... I hope thats not the case, but I guess not caring about anyone or anything could be worst.
I don't want to be Idle... I want to be action!
