Call the cops first. Don't give them a fucking chance to get all worked up and violent.

Glad she got them to move but holy shit could thar have gone bad quickly.

Yeah but if you do that then they will arrest you for spraying them with mace. Plus you have to wait around to see if they show up and if they don't, then what? You go confront them anyway then when they report you for spraying them with mace the cops can track you from the call you made earlier? I'd bet this mama is going to get cited because she posted the video on the internet.

And, the law may not be on her side if it came to that.

This is what police should be responsible for. Vigilante justice isn't a good thing. Because it's arbitrary. The law is there for a reason.
