How about some common courtesy...

You missed my point sometimes intellect overcomes muscle. Roosevelt- Speak softly and carry a big stick.

My prior post said how one poster got the desired results without escalating the situation.

No, I really didn't miss your point and no I really didn't advocate muscle over intellect. I suggested that a polite request to cease an annoying activity is a reasonable first step, (the sugar). I then suggested, by using intellect, that since gas floats on water a pint of water in the gas tank of the offending Genny is a viable additional step, (the vinegar). The only muscle required in each activity is the ability to walk to their campground followed by the ability to walk to their campground with a pint of water and unscrew the gas cap. No _damage_ is done so using the word "sabotage" is a bit sensationalistic don't you think?

I answered your prior post by pointing out that I don't carry sufficient provisions to feed and further lubricate the gang of drunks in question so that option is not viable to me.

The point I was trying to make is that too many people will try the sugar and when that fails they are out of options because they don't have the courage to move on to the less palatable options even if that is only reporting the offenders to the Rangers or Police for fear of retribution. Heck, some won't even try the sugar they are so lily livered. The point being that too many people will not stand up for what is right any more and by not doing so are passively encouraging the bad behavior and giving the offenders a feeling that their actions are actually acceptable when they clearly aren't.
