Today, as I was walking to my car, I noticed a car with a tail light out. Trying to be a good citizen, I walked up to the driver's side door and said, "Excuse me…" The lady then maced me through the open window. FML

Don't mess with people. Just let the cops issue the tickets and make that lady go to several courthouses simultaneously.

Get the licence plate, and have her charged with assault

And she was trying to be a good citizen by burning your eyeballs. Awesome how things work out.

I'm more interested in the circumstances. Where were you that you were able to just go up to her window? Were you a hobo on the side of the road? Did you get out of your car just to go up to her window? I probably would have maced you too.

4# Perhaps OP's car was parked in a parking lot and as op was walking towards it, they noticed the other car.

Get the licence plate, and have her charged with assault

It would be kind of hard for op to do that.

Depends what state they're in, some states it's legal to shoot anyone you think may pose an immediate threat. OP, a stranger to this woman checks out her car, then walks upto her window, she maced him (far less severe than shooting), so a judge could see how the woman thought she was under threat.

I'm just gonna assume that there probably are not all too many black people left in these states, right? Just cause... y'know, those poor old ladies who are scared of black people and then the fact that pretty much every single person above the age of 13 carries a weapon around.

Maybe, but starting a conversation hardly constitutes a threat. There would have to be a weapon visible, or physical contact should have been made. Just talking to someone is a long way from a threat :P.

Its like you told the future!!

The woman probably thought you were the state trooper that ticketed her twice for the same reason!

You probably should have removed your Jason mask prior to approaching her.

... or at the very least, taken that pair of ladies panties off your head!

I laughed at this louder than I should've.

Why is that? Where does this statement come from, anyone know? Please do tell. Because it seems to be frighteningly true lately with me.

46 - I don't believe it to be true. I recon what goes around comes around. Do good and it'll come right back at ya. Try it.

46- well, it's a song in Wicked (a musical, if you don't know) but aside from that, it's probably something that comes from biblical origin, what with Jesus doing good things then being killed for them and such. other than that I don't know

She thought you were a cop and was trying to make a getaway, don't take it offensively OP.
