I was thinking this too. Growing up in Southern California, i learned a long time ago, you mess with one Bean, you get the whole Burrito. (Pardon the "colorful" metaphor, but I don't know how else to state it.) At any rate, this man will have bigger issues ahead with that gang. Of that I have no doubt.

Welcome to his real life Grand Torino Clint Eastwood movie. There will be a house for sale in Nassau County real soon. To think that is were I was born. Glad I left town in 73.

Personally, I would have done the same thing. However, I probably would not have shot at the grass.

Imagine the real estate pitch.

'As you can see, the property boasts three bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, an attached two-car garage, lovely southern exposure and a free-standing basement wine rack that was constructed by the previous owner just before he was run out of town by an international drug cartel that operates in the neighborhood.'

He fired it into the grass at a bunch of MS-13 thugs. Good going!

MS-13 are an organized roving gang that have been storming into homes and looting them lately.

I vote this guy New York's Man of the Year.
That is what we need!! Great job!
