I'll give the kid the benefit of a doubt that he's just socially awkward, but you were much calmer than I would be encountering someone smirking and side-eyeing me that much when they're in the wrong. 0% chance he'd be allowed back on my property if he's going to act like like I'm the one being a jerkoff.
Thanks bud. I'm catching alot a anger from about of 3 percent of the comments. For the look at my pocket bit. The kid obviously felt safe. I was coming up with it on the fly. I just wanted to be in control to make sure nobody tried something stupid or dangerous
I run multiple motorcycle tracks that the neighbor kids can come and ride on whenever they like. For legal reasons, I wouldn't have given him consent. I would have said something along the lines of If you ride back there you don't have my consent, but I'm not going to bother you". I am a massive advocate for letting kids fart around on unused or land that they are not hurting. But you do have to cover your ass for getting sued. The biggest issue is even if they are great people and won't sue you personally. If he flips that quad and needs an ambulance ride. The insurance company can actually sue without the consent of the person on the plan. So if I were you get a liability release waiver. If you want one that's already made up I would be happy to give you a copy of the one I use, which I had made by my lawyer.
Enduro fury, Thanks so much for the advice! I'm sure I could've handled it better, but I made it up as I went. I guess I'm OK for the waiver, but you are correct. Be a good idea to start getting people to sign them. Glad to see another small business owner getting by. Brother, please come back!
You should see the people on the short telling me i deserve to have charges pressed and should have my gun rights removed. Maybe i should have done it differently. But i was coming up with it on the fly.
Maybe. Or maybe a kid that laughs when he gets nervous. Or maybe it was done as an example of how trespasser could be treated. Truthfully, I came up with my words as I said them. And the audience did give some wise advice. Maybe it was a training exercise. Maybe it was a publicity stunt. Maybe it was real. I will provide more info in future videos!
