Drove Down To a Local Ramp

This afternoon to find it littered with 20 or 25 of the big white rocks the COE puts around the ramps. :banghead:banghead:bangheadI shut the truck off and got out, taking a closer look someone had been throwing them down on the ramp and breaking them up some. I cleared the ramp of the larger ones, all of these would be underwater by Monday and be a pain when you are unloading. Never have understood folks doing crap like this, I scolded a kid last year for throwing these rocks out over the ramp to watch the water splash. His dad looked at me and I told him, if you wont correct him I will. If he wants to throw rocks do in on the other side of the levy and not where people would be trying to unload their boats. They left, good ridance.

I messed a brand new prop up on a boat form someone doing that

Always been an issue on old gravel ramps too.

word for the wise . While working Enid I saw several people hop off boats at ramps only to land on busted beer bottles . the water gets over them and you will have no clue . Some took multiple stitches .

When I am in the lake I wear shoes, period, never barefoot!!

Saturday at butla there were 2 boys fishing across the river, a younger boy was throwing bottles and rocks down the rocks. There were about 10 people at the picnic table and I never heard a word from anyone.

Some people ain't got a lick of sense.. unfortunately it's genetic. Can't stand an idiot young or old...

i tore up an aluminum prop last year for the same reason. big pile of rocks on the ramp under water.

I busted 2 props on rocks at the north abutment ramp on Nader a few yrs ago, but got lucky a few days later and busted 3 teens chuncking rocks in.....broke them from that habit ! Thanks RG for clearing the ramp.

Saw that around the same ramp three years ago. People had moved big rocks to the sw side of the ramp to hold their ropes when beaching on that side. Water rises, rocks still there.

I stopped 2 kids today while working on the truck that were cutting across my side yard. I noticed this black kid had what looked like a 1911 A1. I hollered at him when he was pointing it at the back of the younger white kids head. I stopped and talked to them and told them that if 1 of Southaven's men in blue was to see that they would either be getting a gun pointed at them or taking a ride to the station. That gun was a air-soft but it looked like the real thing. Same size and all.I saw the kid pull the slide back on it and at first sight,it looked real.The world is going the hell in a hand basket. Rees you had every right to jump on them folks.

If you don't have one in your hand you need to stay in the house. I wear one in the holster 95 percent of time I am awake. I never travel without at least 1 within 2 ft. The politics have ruined the police the PC crowd of suxx have ruined our country!! I love any color persons if you act like inbred trash I will protect anyone in my presence!! I also wear one any time I hunt or fish!!! I have worked murders during deer season and have worked college kids being shot for sport at Puskus in Lafayette county years ago!! Trash is like Isis they go to soft targets be vigilant around boat ramps!! You are extremely in a bad situation being alone at a boat ramp!!! bE SAFE!!

X2.

Another thing that even all most as bad is the Corp put new picnic tables in the parking area at Long Branch boat ramp . You got to pay to put your boat in and they are using the parking area to hole the new tables . Who's idea was this , LOL . Someone needs to be fired .
