Well I hate thieves

A liberal is just a conservative who hasn’t been mugged yet.

A liberal is just a conservative who hasn’t been mugged yet.

And a progressive is a liberal that has been mugged and blames themselves…

Move teh stuff out out every night, and your truck gets broken into…

On the Boom Box, porch pirates are CRAZY here. I don’t get it, it’s like random shoplifting…

I wish that were true. I've dealt with plenty of our more liberal minded friends who refuse to prosecute their mugger, attacker, etc because of their own political beliefs.

Personally, I am not in the habit of leaving anything worth much on an unattended jobsite.

Getting things stolen is a warning sign that it is not 'safe' to leave stuff on the job when you are not around.

But you still did...

Gee, you must be fun at parties.

Must just be the crowd on this forum. Everybody else I know just loves having their shit ripped.

At the end of the day it is my fault for trusting humanity. I’m more pissed at my neighbors. The individual hit two nights in a row. One night he was there twice or for 5 hours

I was once painting my house in Ft. Lauderdale with a vintage 80s boombox on the front porch supplying the tunes. I was on a ladder on the side of the house. I saw a car slowing down on the street and I knew EXACTLY what was going on. I jumped off the ladder and intercepted "fat ass black bitch" half way up my lawn with a "Can I help you?" and she mumbo jumbo'd some shit asking about a person that NEVER lived in that house.

I pretended to walk back to my ladder and she pretended to walk back to the car and sure as shit when I doubled back she was half way up my front lawn again. So I literally have to bike lock my radio to the porch rail or I have to take it with me all around the house and risk dripping paint on it OR people will walk right up on my front yard and do a 4pm snatch and grab.

Amazing. That you didn't commit homicide I mean.

Buy some cheap cameras.
They are easy to install and remove.

We had a similar issue happen several years ago, so we put wireless cameras in houses we are getting ready, now. You get notified on your phone and can take appropriate actions from there.

What we need are Nest cameras slaved to a remote control 240E pintle mount.

There's a pretty funny video of motioned activated high volume water sprinklers floating around on the 'net. While not as effective as a 240, you also won't go to jail for it.
