My shop got vandalized....

that sucks about the damage. glad they caught the kids. hopefully they can do something about them.

I had my garage(which was constantly getting broken into) up north wired with some old tv (flyback) capacitors and they got charged if you broke into the place without hitting the hidden lever to ground them out. you could get in but darned if you could get out. I caught a 17y.o. kid in there laying on the ground out like a light with his hand wrapped around the 383 dual quad manifold and carbs he was stealing, I beat the living hell out of him with a rubber sock and some bolts in it while he was laying there so he would remember NEVER to mess with me again. (unwired the flybacks, hid em in the neighbors garage:glasses7:) and then called the police and the ambulance. kid swore up and down he got electrocuted and wanted to press charges. the cops told him if he was electrocuted he was lucky to be alive and they found no evidence to support it. kid got 3 years for B&E,aggravated assault . weirdly I never got broken into again:D
I'm thinking to do that down here but making it a package deal that can be unplugged and removed, with just wires going to the metal in the building.

I feel that what's mine IS mine, but if you need it, just ask I'll try and help, YOU TAKE it and all bets are off, you are now fair game for anything goes

You're lucky he didn't come back and torch the place...or have ten or so of his fellow MS-13 gangbangers rape, torture, and kill every member of your family! Someone I work with reported vandalism...the cops caught the guy. A week later, someone sprayed his house with about fifty .223 rounds at 3am.

He moved away.
 
Two years ago I had someone paint all my license plates white. The whole plate except the yearly tag. I didn't find out until one of my employees had told me about the plate. I was pissed. I called my wife and had check all the vehicles and yes all painted white. I reported it to the local pd, they came out and took pics. I asked if I needed to get new plates and they said no as long as the tag is still visible. I took some brake cleaner and the paint came off fairly easy. They must have used some of that cheap rattle can paint from Wal mart.

I know i shouldn't laugh...but I did. Hard! :shock: What a WEIRD thing to do!
 
The more we look and see what they did the more apparant it becomes that there are serious problems with these boys, they stabbed one of the tires 9 times... they threw eggs around the camper inside... they sprayed each other with the fire extinguisher... not normal things at all especially for 8 and 10 year olds. I hope after the judge gets done with whatever punshiment they get handed that they get the mental help they need , they need a thorough phsycological examination and then the proper counseling to not become a drain on society and end up in jail which is the definate route they are headed at this point. I have to accept it to overcome it and move on, it sucks and we had the first round of out of pocket expense today, $3800.00 in tires alone. One more adjuster to show up tomorrow and then all the " yeah thats not covered " answers start.
 
Wow, really hope the insurance comes good but we all know about that story...

We had something similar here about 20 years ago. Little town called Crysler, Ontario. Small century old church was broken into and destroyed. Everything you could imagine. They even smashed the organ! Police caught them, two brothers both under 12. Turns out the little congregation could not afford insurance...

Long story short the church was ultimately demolished.
