BrakeSnake Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 im going to have one of these posts put in front of my garage where my .:R is kept. They took an S3 from me parked in there, came round with a tow truck in broad daylight when i was out and just towed it away. no keys. never confronted by neighbours. And i'm sure they would have been armed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigieboy Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Your health and your familys health are worth alot more than a car ever will be. Posts might delay them, dogs might make them bring a weapon next time, trackers will give them a game of finding it, there's always going to be that extra step to be taken if its a 'steal to order' job.

BrakeSnake Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Totally agree. I was the victim of a professional group, and i'm sure they would have had the car one way or another. Still, It goes against my principles to make it easy for them, otherwise, why not leave your car out of a locked garage. why not leave your front door open. You still have to live against what these people stand for. just like that other factor which is shoved in our faces every day... terrorism and living under a labour government (sometimes seems oddly related...)

v6tas Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Quite agree, make it as difficult as possible up until the point where they need to get nasty to find the keys. You can bet your bottom dollar that if you make it difficult the majority (proffesional gangs excluded) will move along to the next street to find a mug who hangs his keys by the front/back door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vagabond Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 So you're a hairdresser with a van full of tools? What tools? a load of scissors and hairdryers and crimping irons? It would be like taking candy from a baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattburrow Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Police take a dim view if you hit someone downstairs. However if they are upstairs then they are putting your family at risk. So as I was told by one Officer smack the cr3p out of them downstairs and drag them upstairs followed by booting them back down the stairs. Who are they going to believe. You or the robber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrakeSnake Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 totally agree tspar:) the ones who want your car, as professionals, WILL get it one way or another, but the other 98% that are opportunists, make it as damn hard for them as possible...

BrakeSnake Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 that is not a general police view. As long as they are not obviously running out your front door or already on the ground, if they pass the threshold of your property and pose a threat to you, your family or your property, you are allowed to use any 'reasonable' force deemed necesarry to protect yourself... You don't really want to be getting into a fight with pro's with knives or guns, but if some little scrote has found his way into your house, then he IS going to have a 'pitch and putt' lesson.... It ISN'T going to happen to me again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrakeSnake Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 they will get properly aquainted with my cheapo clubs... unfortunately my woods dont come into that category, so it will have to be my trusty 7iron, or my old putter... ideal for pitch and put...
