My wife and I were taking our usual evening walk with our dog on Friday. We walk about 8 miles a day---combined before/after work and at lunch.
We were walking Friday evening before meeting with friends and while coming up a hill we noticed a guy blowing leaves---he appeared to be finishing up as he walked down the driveway, then started to walk back up. His house is on the left side of the road and we walk on the left side (toward traffic). There's no sidewalks.
As we approached him he kept walking towards us, stopped blowing leaves, then all of the sudden went full throttle right at us...we were being pelted with debris. We started yelling "Yo---what the hell"? He was looking right at me and we had a yelling match over the sound of his blower. He finally lowered the blower but used it [still] at low speed. He yelled "Why the hell do you have to walk on this side"? I yelled, "Common courtesy is to stop the blower even if they're on the other side"
We had a few more choice words for him and him at us---he didn't even apologize... then noticed he had a BLM sign, Shapiro sign and a "Pro choice" sign out front. As we walked away my wife said to me "Look at your shirt---it must have triggered him". I have a "Grunt style" shirt that's black and white and rifles in the shape of an American flag.
There's no other reason that could explain it...he was triggered leftist. We live in a semi-rural area of Bucks county,PA. These people are dangerously deranged.

But it seemed that the jackwagon mindset was greatest in Upper Makefield, Washington Crossing, Yardley, and New Hope. In other words, the affluent areas. Well, New Hope is sort of like Greenwich Village with good gun laws, but you get the point.
Back in the day, people weren't triggered. For the most part. Especially in lower Bucks, which was fairly blue collar and people only got in your face if you were a Cowboys fan.
I wrote a lengthy post today positing that the left has become unhinged because, for decades after WWII, many people asked themselves "what would *I* have done in Berlin in 1939 to stop Hitler?" Trump comes along, and these nuts whip themselves into a frenzy and make Trump out to be Hitler2.
They fancy themselves as the Resistance, and conclude that the answer to the Berlin 1939 question, is "whatever it takes."
This is why you never get a coherent answer from Leftists about the 2020 fraud...because to them, it was a necessary "whatever it takes" measure to stop Hitler2. Breaking the law, incivility, riots, mayhem, and a little murder is a small price to pay for being Correct.
Mr Leaf Blower is Resisting, and his little act of Defiance means history will pat him on his head for not being like a citizens of 1939 Berlin.
That's messed up thinking, and it's where they're at.
Thee book by Stephen King, The Cell, comes to mind. A phone call and if answered thee people went crazy. Looks like a perfect fit for liberals these days. Trump was the call that pushed them into insanity.
I went into my gym on Saturday wearing my “Biden Is NOT my President” shirt and the Vasa Employee said I agree. and I knew without him saying anything what he meant! i always get atleast 1 or 2 comments no matter where I go that say love your shirt, me too, etc.
Yep!
This is why I don’t have signs on my house or stickers on my car.
Shapiro? You threw him in the same company as a BLM sign?
I call BS.
Definitely an idiot - unreasonably harass someone who now knows where you live, and you don’t have the same information about them.
Dump truck of yard waste and debris - ‘be a shame if that happened to such a nice drive....’
LOL, you see...you think as a normal, well-adjusted, considerate person.
Me, I will see someone coming, I stop, smile and wave as they pass, and then once they have passed, resume my task.
Leftists...not so much!
“You’re correct. And it’s NEVER WISE to make enemies... some people will watch you for YEARS, and then strike when you’ve long forgotten and your guard is down.”
Especially about such trivialities as lawn and garden issues, as Rand Paul discovered.
Have your phone video camara ready when you walk there again.
Have your pocket pistol too.
And they call us unhinged.
Leftists are the most intolerant people going.
“The wicked man finds the righteous man obnoxious.” - Proverbs 29
You did the right thing. Your safety and that of your wife’s didn’t seem to be on the line. Onward Christian soldiers!
Except for when they want “everyone to pay” for their pet projects.
Whenever I have talked to a leftist, they are all about compassion and helping people just as long as the public and ultimately the taxpayers pick up the tab.
They don’t seem to be willing to do it on their own. They always seem to want big government and the taxpayers to do it and pay for it. Doesn’t seem sincere.
Triggered = reflex action = stimulus, response…like a single cell organism, no thinking involved.
“We must hate. Hatred is the basis of communism. Children must be taught to hate their parents if they are not communists.”Very old news about the left.

BLM
Biden Loves Minors….
Another crazed libtard zombie
They’re everywhere and get all jacked up with hate watching fake libtard news
