I mentioned that my daughter was a victim or road rage in my last post. As it happened, I was in Portland for two days while my wife flew to Boise to visit her sister. My daughter was driving and spotted a white sedan in some closed business parking lot, then the guy was walking toward the car with bucket of something, wearing the same orange t-shirt he had on when he confronted her.
My inclination was to get her to turn into that lot so I could educate this jerk on what a bad idea it is to scare the hell out of some woman, yell & throw his drink on her car. She would not stop and maybe that was best, I suppose, though he was skinny, unhealthy looking and maybe 30 years younger than I am.
So, we drove on about two miles to her house and I hope she doesn't see him again.

Probably best not to confront. You already know he is volatile. Let the courts do their thing I have family in Portland as well.

@JamesHxstatic (lol) That does not mean you can get the better of him confronting him. Right?

As much as you wanted to confront the guy it is best you did not, He could have had a concealed weapon and things could have gotten really bad, I missed it so I will check out that post,

Right, it was a tempting situation, funny to run across him in that big city.

Scary to know he is so close. Glad you did not confront him, though.

Sounds like you wanted to get justice for your daughter.However maybe what your daughter did was right.

I'm glad you didn't confront him, much as you would have liked to. We'll all pray for karma to take care of it.
