baron_ Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 ...had my car broken into twice in columbus And stolen once (never recovered - the 1966 GTO convertible) Fuckers....I'd be game for some sort of surveilance and ass-kicking. I wish boobytrapping was a possibility, but it isn't. You can't go to extreme measures and hurt a criminal. There are cases...like....when someone has a boobytrapped gun pointing at a window (and crook comes in and gets shot)....where the owner of the house is prosecuted The gun is one thing...razorblades are another. You might be able to get away with slicing someone's hand.... (and i can't imagine him calling the cops) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr8tn Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I did the razor blade thing 18 years ago when I first moved up here. I lived down by parsons and my shit got stole on a regular basis. I epoxied some blades to the back of a power booster ( yes, they used to be cool ) after 2 or 3 had been stolen. I go out to head to work one day and see my window busted and think "ahhh shit". Get up to the car and there's blood all over the place in the car. I wiped the seat out and laughed my ass off all the way to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr8tn Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 as far as it being legal I didn't care....not like they could finger me in a line up. Best they could do is point a wrapped up ass nub at me. After my second or third booster got lifted I sat in some bushes at night near the car with a 12 pack of beer and a baseball bat for 2 weeks waiting for them to come back. Never showed and then I remembered where I was and figured I'd just get my ass shot holding a ball bat so I went the razor blade route.

DOLLAR BILL Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 I am not pretending to be an expert, but if they get hurt on/in your vehicle they have reason to sue you. Not sure on what grounds, but I'm not a lawyer. I just believe this to be true. the can sue you if the get hurt in your car you no the law is on the victim side if the get hurt it is ok for them to steal your shit i did the razor blades back in 1983 because my car kept getting broken into the third time it happen i put super glue on the razor blades came out one morning my radio was hanging from the wires an blood was all over the inside of the car i called the cops to get a police report to turn into my insurance the cop told me that if the person that broke in my car file charges on me i could go to jail point blank.an they could sue the HELL out of me an will win to now that is real sad i never bought another aftermarket radio after that.

baron_ Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 you may get in trouble for razor blades.....but the person suing would also get in trouble Razor blades are probably a safe bet. Do they want to go to jail to have you pay their legal bills? Thousands of dollars in legal bills, while they admit they were thieving in the car? And bring legal action against themselves? I can't imagine a judge would be very sympathetic And, as a former prosecutor, I can't imagine a prosecutor would want to press hard charges against you. If it were me, I'd maybe give you a misdemeanor for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneToEnvy Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 UPDATE Well my insurance company is being pretty cool about everything so far. They say that they will cover everything this time however if i want to keep my same rates i cant make another claim for 12 months. On a side note check out what i just found on craigs list. I think its a little funny that they are selling a $700 unit for $200 obo and that in the last 6 months iv never seen a pioneer 4000 listed on craigs list untill 5 days after mine was stolen. http://columbus.craigslist.org/ele/806888745.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
