    We busted a group of teenage high school ****s stealing scrap metal off of our property. They not only know where we live but what we drive. I'm not too worried about it...told them that if they come back I'm gonna **** 'em up six ways to Sunday instead of turning them over to the cops...
    I'm no expert, but I took my CCW course at a Holiday Inn Express

    Not a LEO--But could replace sticker with different one, or no stickers at all.

    If you said they were just kids stealing from the mall, I wouldn't worry about "retaliation" as they are not hardened career criminals.

    I too live in a small town and our agency is the largest LE presence down here. Everyone in town automatically knows or assumes you are most likely BP as they know you're not from the town. We are already not well liked as a general feeling, but few have made bold threats to agents or their families. The few that have are involved in human and wholesale narcotics smuggling.

    Then again, I wasn't there. I don't know the neighborhood you live in and whether these kids were just being stupid or were already involved in greater criminal activities.

    Don't sweat it, thanks for being a good citizen and helping.
    I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion.

    Ha, if that is the least of your worries consider yourself blessed.

    Unless your vehicle is so obvious that it is literally the only one of it's kind, you will be fine.

    The nervous little kid that is currently pissing his pants while talking to his parents is not thinking about your vehicle.

    well, it kind of is very unique, there is no other pickup like mine in town. I have kind of gotten over it now, i doubt that kid gives a shit what his parents think though.

    IMHO it is foolish not to for many reasons.

    I park my marked unit in front of my home, and I live in the shit part of town. Not much you can do but hope for the best expect the worst I suppose.


    And unless this was a "hardened criminal shoplifter" the worst will probably be a few eggs or a key job.


    I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
