if i saw you doing that you would be lucky to be walking.

you are a jerk

Who hit a lady? Believe me this this was no lady. The lovely scabs all over its arms from where it had been shooting up showed it was no lady.
How do you say no you dont want your window washed when they just come up and start doing it? To me them squirting their bottle of christ knows what soap onto my car and it getting all over the paint is nothing short of an act of vandalism.
Give me a million negative rep points if you want. The whole rep points thing really doesnt float my boat.
Have a go at me to make sure I wasnt walking? Haha thought I would love to see. I dont care who or what anyone is , if they attack me or my property , male or female I will defend myself at all times.
Maybe head off elsewhere and try to save the world.
In hindsight after the event it was not the smartest thing in the world to do but I have no regrets. Would you have been so against me doing it if it was a bloke that did it instead of a woman? Its not like I punched her out , I just attempted to put the contents of the bottle in her mouth.
Everyone can flame me all they want. The opinion of the feeble nannas that have become a part of this forum lately that want to save the world and look through life with rose coloured glasses on doesnt really worry me.

dont ever try and justify hitting a lady because she wet a car

If it was just water she got on the car I would of just told her to **** off. After all it gets water on it everytime it rains.
The FACT is it was some form of washing up detergent you could see in the bottle that got all over the freshly treated and waxed paint. Therefore it stripped the wax off and I had to go home and do the bonnet , front guard and roof again.
You are just up on your high horse carrying on like a pork chop , thinking you are being a do gooder and only using half the FACTS in your argument!

I have never had to deal with the window washers but if I did they wouldn't get a cent from me. I didn't ask, I don't pay, simple as that.

I reckon that RTA video with Russel in it is a better movie to watch then most of his other ones!

calm down champ you assaulted a woman and think your right.

if it was a bloke you hit its not good but at least he can put up a bit of a fight.

do you think trying to drown her is right?

Meh don't really care as long as they take a hint when your not interested which is 100% of the time. Window wipers do the job fine. What ****** me off is the clowns at the servo who need to wash the windows to perfection.

FFS it's getting hard to find a thread that hasn't gone off the rails by the second or third page these days.

Everyone has opinions on what is right and what is wrong and both of you have expressed those opinions so can we let it go and not drown this thread with back and forth shot taking?

I'd be ****ed too if someone squirted cleaning agent out of a bottle onto my car after i'd waxed it and i'd most likely fire up. Would I assault a women? Probably not but like MAV said he had a brain snap and it happened.

Let's try not have this thread locked...

Sorry,
no I am not condoning what he did. It should not have been handled like that.
I might be a youngen, but I was brought up to respect others and particularly not to hit women.

My point was more that I didn't think MAV50L was telling others to go out and do the same, but telling his experience when he wasn't in a good frame of mine "brain snap" brain no longer thinks 'proper like.'

*completely distant from the above*
These people need to learn that what they are doing is wrong and causes distress to some people. If they want to wash peoples windscreens they can set up an area somewhere safe off the side of the road.
Where only those who particularly wish to have their windscreens washed can have it done.

I hate them, but don't see them very often luckily.

One time when I was working at Budget Car Rentals as a groomer I had just finished washing a car and was driving it to the depo and someone started washing the windscreen, light turned green, the idiot next to me was paying no attention and didn't go (which would have made the washer look up) I couldn't go because I had an idiot on my bonnet and I almost missed the light.
The car was still wet (as in dripping wet) from cleaning it and I had my uniform on, yet this guy thought I'd pay him?

My cars have built in window squirters and wipers I don't need anyone to clean my windshield.
