Do I have an anger problem?

So today, I went to the mall to get my 4S exchanged at the Apple Store since my speaker decided to bust on its own. As I was waiting behind a car blocking traffic so the guy could get a parking spot of someone leaving, a Mexican dude in a wheel chair (fairly young, maybe 25-30 years old) approached my car out of nowhere and asks for money. I never carry any change because coins annoy the crap out of me and the only bills I had at the time started with 20s so I shook my head.

This guy gets in a random fit and decides to stroll around my car around the back (I was watching him with the Top View cameras all around to make sure he wasn't keying me or anything, the option was actually kinda useful for once) and he stops in front of my car acting all aggressive in a wheel chair (yeah, I know).

A part of me wished he had just touched my car. Had he done so, my X5 would've had heavy frontal damage, the mall would've had structural damage, I would've had a ridiculous insurance hike, the news would have a field day about bad Asian drivers, and I might be charged with manslaughter.

Does it sound like I have an anger problem if I'm willing to kill ghetto scum that wants to start things for no reason? I know it's not worth it in the long term but, I would be doing the world a favor, right?

Also, I just filed and paid for a concealed handgun license.


TL;DR: I almost mowed over some crazy hobo in a wheel chair with a 1-month old German luxury SUV, IZ I MAD?

BINGO.

Arm yourself; no need to worry about minor dents and wheelchair inflicted dings, indeed, put him down before he gets close enough.

I call it the "George H Dub Yuh Bush PREEMPTORY STRIKE."

Give him 120 seconds to slowly wheel his meth ass along, or, put the X in drive and, speaking colloquially, unload yo gat.

/dry humor

I have had my concealed weapons permit for some time. For example, I took my very nice car and very nice fiance (I have to say that) to the fair this evening. It was packed, there were more police there than actually patrolling (i.e. que the interstate ricers) and I brought my colloquial gat because I don't trust the police to take a head shot on the guy holding my very nice fiance. And honestly, I'm probably the only guy ballzy enough to attempt it. Preemptory strike, afore mentioned, does have a slight margin of error....but who's splitting hairs, ehh?

Did I have to use my weapon? Nope.

Did I feel a thousand times safer knowing I could protect my family because I made a logical decision to carry a hand gun? Damn strait.

I DO have an anger problem, and it is 100% of the reason I HAVEN'T filed for a handgun permit... lol

How likely are you to act on your impulse if provoked?
Because running a handicapped homeless man with a car would not be an appropriate response unless your life was threatened...

Would have backed up a little and started a standing burnout. Most people get the fuck out of the way when you do that.

Keep in mind carrying a gun makes a lot of illegal activities 10x more illegal, even if you don't even take the gun out or have any bullets on you.

I was kinda trapped with a car in front and behind me. Also, can't really burn out in a 4WD X5

If you do have an anger problem, getting a gun isn't a good idea.

The guy is a homeless bum, in a wheel chair. You drive a $80,000+ vehicle. You have a better life than him. Be happy and let it go.

I think it's funny that you even thought of running over a guy in a wheel chair. Be lucky you did not have a gun, you probably would've used it.
