The dog taking a crap in another person's pit spot story is absurd, but other than that, you guys are at the race track. If you want peace and quiet, you have the wrong hobby. Maybe HR9121 should learn some consideration for other people driving around him when he decides to get in the "hammer it" lane and disobey speed limits. Maybe SSGT should learn some consideration for families with young children when your shaking your head at them in disbelief, obviously oblivious to the challenges of parenthood as small children go through different phases of development. Consideration is a two-way street.

Case in point: I was in a restaurant recently (a pretty nice restaurant) with my wife and children. The place was fairly full, and in walk this couple with their two 8-10 year old kids, who proceeded to watch videos on their phones at full volume, play video games and run around the table, when, of course, they weren't yelling or complaining about something. The parents didn't even seem phased that everyone around them was staring at them in disbelief, including the staff. There was a room full of people trying to enjoy a peaceful meal out on a Saturday night, only to have it ruined by parents who are at the very least inconsiderate and boorish. I have seen this happen (or something similar) too many times to count, including crying babies that need to be taken elsewhere to calm down. It is inconsiderate and classless to afflict others with bad manners and carelessness. Last edited by SSGT Mustang; 09-09-2013 at 01:49 PM. |

Listening to race cars is one thing, someone's barking dog is not even on the same subject. Someone's pets barking is the same as someone's kids misbehaving. The passing lane is exactly that a passing lane, if someone wants to exceed the speed limit that is there prerogative. Law enforcement can enforce the speed limits, but get out of the passing lane. As for someone's misbehaving kids, grow some balls and deal with correcting the behavior and take them out, or leave. Others are there to have pleasant conversations, and your screaming and misbehaving kids are a reflection of the parent and their parenting. Who is in control? The kid or the parent? This is the future of our country and the crap our poor teachers have to deal with daily! Get a clue, and if you want to make comments show your name for credibility, otherwise your just another troll. Sean

Ever fly the RED EYE from LA to New York with a baby two aisles behind you that cried from about 15 minutes after take off to about an hour before landing. That's something special .The mother tried everything but to no avail. Quite a trip !

We bring our dog along, the cars don't bother him a bit doesn't even raise his head up. However the fireworks make him a wreck, of course he goes and hides then it's like nothing ever happened a few minutes later. Not saying it's right or wrong, we also put our dog in the trailer when we'll be away, he doesn't bark he cries for a few minutes calling for his pack we assume, does the same thing at home.Being a responsible pet owner eliviates many of the "problems" of bringing pets to the races. IMO

We were at a carshow sat and I was sitting at my buddy's vending spot when a vendor from across the isle came over and said the fellow looking at stuff's dog had crapped on the ground and just kept going. I walked over to him and told him and he looks at me and said it could not be his dog. I told him the woman across said it was his and he made quite a song and dance but finally picked up the three pieces of ****. A lot of unthoughtful people everywhere.
