Bullying, threatening sports parents we have always had with us, but now that everyone’s got a gun, watch out.
Offended that his kid didn’t get enough time on the playing field, a NJ father subjected coaches and principals to extensive verbal violence/threats, because of which he’s been banned from the kid’s high school graduation. Boring details here.
One of the great things about everyone packing is that comments like you better watch your back and you wanna fight? have gone from irritants to declarations of war. People who used to be regarded as manageable assholes now present as terrifying machine gunners, and quickly the police are called in.
This particular asshole has announced he might watch the graduation standing atop a big truck in the street next to the event. Who will be surprised when this latest shit from the guy includes him pointing his AR15 at the happy families?

Friends who coach or ref youth sports say that a small subset of parents are the worst, and getting refs and coaches is becoming more difficult.

That small subset of parents is only Part One. Aside from the general business of all the guns in everyone’s hands, players like Emmanuel Duron (who grow up to be Richie Incognito) might bother me. Litigation related to hazing and how much I knew might bother me. Etc etc.
