An old guy back in Indiana -- about 85 -- asked some street punks to turn down the radio in their car. He was very polite, and asked several night running. Each time he was told to piss off.

One night he asked again. Getting the usual response, he pulled out a .357 magnum revolver and blew the stereo in the car to bits.

The cops were displeased, but understanding. Then two nights later another old timer did exactly the same thing.

At that point the cops let it be known that the next person who shot a car stereo wouldn't merely be cited, but would be doing hard time. The practice stopped, and the stereos were turned down to a reasonable level.

So...take warning, Kendall. Cops don't LIKE people to shoot up stereos.
