Wow, I'm very shocked to find out in real life Scrotis is a confrontational hothead with anger management issues. Hey, do what you want, tough guy, no problem there. But I'm real unimpressed you came to here to "brag" about it. I can't help but feel that was your primary motivation. If your intentions were really that pure no one would ever know. Start a thread that breaks down your donations to charity next. C'mon, you know you want to...

The police are there to fill in when polite society fails. We do have to make an effort to remind people when they have transgressed, as long as doing so is safe. We weren't there, so we don't know if SLK was too confrontational. The result suggests he was, but maybe the litterbug has some weird problem.

While I sorta think what SLK did was fine... I am always reluctant to do the same thing. TS has made it a point to me OVER AND OVER AGAIN to not flip people off in the car or get into confrontations with strangers in the Real World (the virtual MOL world is fine...I think). Her point being, that she doesn't want to see me get hurt or killed because of some crazy-azzed mo-fo. You don't know who is the wack job out there that is packing heat or is dumb enough to kill someone over a parking spot, road rage, or for that matter for being a litterbug. You sort of make the assumption that because he was a Kerouac poseur that he wasn't certifiably insane and that he didn't have a weapon on him and wasn't prepared to use it. I guess my self-preservation has taught me not to make that assumption. And while I agree with Robert Livingston that his comment was succinct and that Bush is big giant liar, I also see how SLK was sharing what worked for him and took a stand about something worthwhile. Thanks SLK for doing the right thing, you're a braver man than I. |

Thanks Alley, I guess I always had a good sense of when to shut up and when not to. For example, this morning while waiting for 2/3 train at Penn some tough guy threw some trash right onto the tracks. I was thiiiiis close to saying something but something told me not to or I would be on the front page of tomorrow's NY Post! -SLK |

SLK-I thought it was great that you spoke up. There are an awful lot of every-day people out there who have no concept whatsoever of accountability. RL-keep it up! Every post you make reaffirms what most here already know... He brags that he was 4F, but challenges others to enlist in the military, a classic! Now he calls out others for not "giving back" in the form of charitable donations. I'll bet the last donation he made was when his mom put a quarter in his UNICEF box before he went out trick-or-treating. |

Talk about fear of being ignored. You reach the boiling point over littering, fine. So you're ready to blow, but first you have to size the guy up to make sure you'd have the advantage should the confrontation get physical. Then you come on MOL and brag about your borderline sociopathic behavior as if you're actually some kind of activist or pseudo law enforcement offical. But the same thing happens again and you cower for fear of being pummelled. Sorry, Scrotis, I find your whole little episode sad and pathetic. Surely your "activist" energies could be spent more wisely. |

Scrotis: Verbally sparring with you really brings me back to first grade. Are you really resorting to this type of behavior? Maybe it's time to call a shrink? I'm anxiously awaiting the "I'm rubber and you're glue..." comeback next... I'm curious how you've sized me up if we've never met...that's quite a trick. Then again, you are Batman...but only if your foe is smaller and weaker than you. |

RL, Were you at the train station Saturday morning? Did you you see the individual I had issues with? My guess is no so shutup. Also, you want to know the real reason why I didn't say anything in Penn? If I admitted it, I would probably be attacked from the usual PC police along with a chance of being banned from the boards. So are you admitting you are "smaller and weaker?" Thanks for the tip. Do you realize that only you and CFA have problems with my actions? I am guessing it is my politics that bother you two the most. And RL, please provide examples of what mindblowing intellectual disourse you have offered on these boards? Most of us just witness your ad nauseum knee jerk whining about Iraq, chock full of expletives. Lastly, I still read comic books and Batman is my man. Like him, I take care of things right then and there instead of whimping out and moaning about it later on some internet board. Yet, you seem to have that trait down pact. -SLK By the way there all-knowing witty boy otherwise known as RL, while I don't mind the "sociopath" label (have to look at the source that it is coming from, correct?), what is so sociopathic about confronting someone breaking the law and just being a plain a**hole? I know your type all too well...you'll ignore the holes in bottom of the boat and then be the first to bitch later when you are sinking.... For once in your life,stand up for what you believe in and stop being a spineless turd that only feels powerful behind a keyboard.

SLK...by your own admission you chose to confront one person and not another. Both, apparently, were involved the littering issue which you rightly have a problem with. You also said in an earlier post that "silence kills". So why were you silent in the city and vocal in the burbs? I don't tend to align myself with RL since he tends to be hyperbolic (if thats a word) but you come on the board all puffed up about scaring some 20 something to death so that he "shits his pants" and then don't do the same thing later (presumably because of racial fear) when the same thing happens. There is just a wee tad bit of hypocrasy in the two. So you can understand why someone might grab on and call you on it. It is a little hypocritical to say I can kick a white kid in the burbs butt but not a black kid in the city. (I admit, I am assuming he was based on your post about not mentioning his race for fear of the PC police). How do you reconcile the two. In 50 words or less. Littering is Littering no matter who does it, right? That we can surely agree on. But when it comes to self enforcement you have to be consistant dude, you set a lousy example for the many young americans who look to you for guidance on such matters. Remember, there is always someone watching you, looking up to you for answers to the "whats the right thing to do" question. Gotta be consistant |

Duncan, be fair. It really is fair to decide whom you will deliver a message to and whom you will not. For many of us, kicking a white kid in the 'burbs is within the realm of possibility but not a black kid in the city. Call it the cost of delivering the message. We don't have to be consistent. We bring the message when we can, and we don't when we can't but wish we could.

I emailed a link to this thread to my cousin Phil, and he says that Scrotis lied about what happened in the first place. According to Phil (who doesn't even smoke), as he was exiting that train, he was surprised by a middle-aged woman walking towards him, who winked at him and said, "Hey, Cutie!" As he reflexively purged his pocket of an empty sugarless gum pack, some balding blowhard sitting in an idling SUV (itself in need of a new muffler) got all up in Phil's face about how "litter is dirty", and how he was going to "call the cops" if my cousin didn't pick up that gum box. Phil told the lardass to mind his own f***in' business, and the guy sped off before Phil could even get close enough to look him in the eye. Then Phil turned around to see the guy's wife -- the woman who had winked at him -- giving him the "thumbs up" sign from her window seat as the train pulled out. Phil is back in The City now, but he's coming back out here next Friday morning on a train that'll arrive in Maplewood at 10:49AM. He says that if Scrotis has such a hardon for a little action, he should just show up this Friday morning at the station, and will be obliged. Personally, if I were Scrotis, I'd pass on Phil's offer, since my cousin is a third-degree black belt. Of course, if Scrotis insists on acting out his bogus macho fantasy, he could come away covered in . On the other hand, maybe he'll decide to have a new muffler installed on his car that morning... -s. |

I guess my point, Tom, is that if you feel compelled to bring a point, then bring a point. Threatening someone over littering is like swatting a fly with a baseball bat. Suit the action to the word, the word to the action. |

I don't have an issue with someone firmly telling another person that his/her behavior is out of place. More of us should do that. If that's what you did, great. Not sure from your original post however, how threatening your behavior was. I'm not in favor of threatening someone over a dropped cigarette pack though - something you could have picked up yourself if it really bothered you. Keeping things in perspective is important. What I do think is strange is the need to go straight to the message board and brag about it. OK, I guess you want us all to know you're a man of action - gutsier and more principled than the rest of us. Maybe, but you don't know many (or perhaps any) of us us IRL. I'm always struck by the number of people who post here and aren't satisfied just to disagree with others. They have to point out how awful those they disagree with are - cowardly, hypocritical, lazy, intellectually weak, etc. I suppose it feels better to think of those you disagree with as morally inferior. But a lot of the people who are "whining" on MOL are also conducting their own little "revolutions." It doesn't mean they are deliberately provocative or belligerent. Maybe some of you disagree, but I think you can do BOTH - whine on the internet and also do something. To me if you're doing one or more of the following, you're not just "whining on the internet." - Volunteering in the community - Working in local politics - Fundraising for charity - Going to rallies or demonstrations - Contributing to candidates or other social/political organizations - Door to door canvassing - Faxing/emailing representatives - etc. Maybe there are a few really lazy and apathetic folks who don't do any of those things and still post here complaining. But I know a lot of the people who post here, and most of them do many things to make at least this little corner of their world better.

Thank you Tom and you are correct, I am done with RL on this topic. Duncan-you hit the nail right on the head, for the most part. But please remember that it was I who disclosed the info on Penn. I guess by doing that I have admitted my own shortcomings. I deserve credit for that at least. But in my defense, I lived in Brooklyn for a long time and know the gig and spent the first 10 years of my life in a rough neighborhood. In short, as a white male I have to watch what I say in urban settings before I have the Al Sharptons on my doorstep and branded the newest NYC racist on the front page of the Post, regardless if I am right on principle. But that doesn't mean I never said anything to "others" and have many times. I just was very slective when doing so. That is part of having street smarts. I have witnessed one too many times where a simple conflict turned quickly into racial strife when race had nothing to do with the infraction. This is very unfortunate. As a result, people remain silent and grow bitter while wrongdoing goes unabated or at least unadressed(sp). You can tear me apart all you want over this "hypocrisy" but I know one thing-From what I can tell of these boards, what I did last Saturday was alot more then others would ever do... -SLK

I had someone intentionally litter in front of me once and my 4 year old said "Mommy why did that man drop that wrapper? Shouldn't it be in the garbage?" She proceeded to pick it up and put it in the closest garbage can. Next time just pick it up and throw it out yourself, I'd bet that would have more of an impact than telling him off. |

Wow. This is really unbelievable. Scrotis in an earlier post cited that he backed away from the confrontation in Penn because the guy looked "psycho." Then admitted it was simply because he was a black dude. Do all black dudes look psycho to you Scrotis? You deserve NO credit for admitting you're a racist. I'll stand by my assessment that you're a selective tough guy with more interest in pumping your own ego on MOL than in any actual civic service. Soda:  |

I guess I was right all along. That's what this is really about. SLK wants us all to know he's a better man than the rest of us. Maybe he is, but it seems to me it's awfully presumptuous to decide that based on nothing more than a bunch of posts on an internet message board. |

Dr. O'Boogie, Correctumundo! At least better than RL who summed me up as a homphobe and racist in one week. Classic left wing tactic. Now pay attention: Even though I already said this umpteen times, this post was to teach a lesson who like to whine about something on an internet board after that something occurs instead of doing anything about it. Is my original post bragging? Of course! Am I using my post to inflate my ego. Maybe somewhat, but mostly it inflated my confidence to take on what I don't think is right in this world. Funny, it is I who refrain from creating a racial siutation and I am the racist. RL, name-calling is an example of 1st grade behavior that you accuse me of, correct? Your a classic passive aggressive punk, kid. The witty tough guy behind a keyboard or in a mass protest, nothing else. -SLK
