wheres the decency?

ive got to vent. and ya'll seem like the best people to do it to cause i figure you'd understand the most

a few weeks ago some dirtball at my school tried breakin into peoples cars and he couldnt get into anything. except my toolbox that has locking issues. didnt get anything that would have been of value to him cause its all tow straps and hammers and what not but still. whats your deal get a job and buy your own stuff dont take stuff from others they've worked hard to get.
and now tonight i go out to my truck at my girlfriends house (parked on the street) and some scumbags egged it. WHOO HOO!!!! we've got immature morons in our town that are so ignorant they have to deface other peoples property. god only knows how long it was on there before i could make it home to pressure wash it off in the dark. now come on people. where is the decency? honestly. did mom and dad not teach you anything? if you cant respect something that doesnt even belong to you, how do you expect anyone to respect you? how do you even respect yourself? i live in a town where everyday there are more and more reports on break ins. theives and incompetent people are running rampid in my town. i feel like i cant have nice things because noone else knows how to handle the responsibility.


ok. im stepping off my soap box now. good day lol

for a while i just brushed it off when people did stupid things... one day i snapped and i have a real bad attitude when you mess with my stuff now. people need real repercussions to worry about. everything is so sissy-iffied that you can get away with everything because no one is man enough to confront you or punish people because it might "hurt someones feelings".

rant over.

A few years ago, when my 89 still looked cherry, a guy I worked with thought it would be funny to put a tire on my hood. I got out of work and saw a tire in the middle of my truck's hood. Some people just don't get it.

Someone slashed my tries on my first truck because "they looked used and i could get new used ones for free" I guess thats what you get when you have snow tires on your older truck.

now my truck is no beautiful truck like most i see on here but shes mine and i love her!!!
i once caught a well known local bottle picker/crackhead/theif in my truck with his hands in my glove box!
i snaped.
saw red.
i literally beat him within an inch of his life.
i thought i was in serious trouble.
and he almost didnt make it.
i regret it but if in the same situation i think it would go down the same way.
im an old school guy and i believe in protecting my own weather it be my family or possesitions its all the same
there is no respect in the world anymore and i belive it will be our downfall in the end

the guy came back about a year later
and apologised then he thanked me!
it helped him to get help to get straight and back on his feet!

in this world if no one gives you respect that you deserve
then you darn well better take it!

This thread just made me think about an iccident with me. A few months back by parents cars, brothers and my truck were broken into. Took a gps, cash, golf clubs and my tools!!

Just thinking about it makes me so mad and disgusted. People who steal from others are low lifes pieces of bleep bluh bleep bluh bleep bleep!

Ahhhh much better

After some cough cough * nice* folks helped them selves to stuff in my moms car when she went to the neighbors house at 3pm I got one of those motion activated deer cameras. I havnt caught them trying to steal stuff again, but I did find out that a bunch of kids cut through my yard to get to the street behind me. Hopefully the exposed wire electric fence takes care of those little buggers. I just set the camera where it can view my porch and 3 cars 24hrs/day and check the videos once a week.

x2. I am living in the wrong decade, I can't believe the stuff that passes for "normal" these days. If you shoot someone you find in your house, you'd better shoot him dead coz if he isn't, the PD will charge you with "excessive force" and YOU will go to jail.

even if you saw someone messin with your truck and called the PD, they'd prolly tell you they were too busy to respond

That you take care of by telling the operator that you shot the person( or perhaps going to shoot ) you caught messin' with your truck. Guarantee it will get *TOP* priority.
cheers,

10-4 on no respect and punishment especially young kids. My brother got a lit up on his way home from work at 1:00 in the morning by a neighbor kid with a paintball gun he got out and chased him on foot for a while then said hmmm i should probably go get my car out of the road. He works for Delaware State Police so his buddies were there in a second.....The good news is we just found out who did and going to go put a little scare in the little guy just to know that there are consequences for such things and it shouldnt of happened in the first place.

Its amazing sometimes i would of been in big trouble if i did something like that times are changing and i am not even that old

A tip from neighbor that someone was dropped off in front of my house on foot at 11PM.

Something about tiptoeing up to someones house at 11PM, then hearing 6 shotgun blasts makes you not want to come back. I would guess anyway.

I was shooting raccoons in the garbage, had no idea there was someone out there messing around. Any 2 for 1 sales on underwear this week?

I caught some schmuck messin with my truck one night I snuck up on him by running up the street and in behind from the dark side, lucky for me I had a 4' piece of closet rod .... he now walks with a permanent limp from a shattered knee , and I ran back in the bushes back to the house before He could ID me ...Justice served at no cost to the tax payer
