THIS MAKES ME MAD!!! BOTH SIDES OF THIS STORY ARE STUPID!!!

It is so sad to think that someone would cause an accident, intentionally or not because of this. However, no one should ever be doing what those teens were doing, especially in an urban area where some may expect to get shot at unexpectedly and may not realize it was a prank.

We have a permanent mark on one of our vehicles from a paintball that was shot at it. Not something that makes me happy, but I'm sure not going to bump someones vehicle and cause it to crash for a stupid stunt either.

It is just plain sad that something like this could happen. Makes one wonder what this society we live in has turned into sometimes.

A license plate number is enough. The man was probably a little drunk and seeing red. It would have been smarter to get some automotive paint remover and get it off as fast as possible...

Turns out they had been driving around the same area for a couple of hours targeting houses and people and vehicles. I don't understand why they were not reported and caught by law enforcement in that amount of time. No charges have been filed against the truck driver yet.
