Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire While away hunting, some low life scum sucking meth head stole my ATV!!!

People have tried that around here but when they get ready to steal it, your dog gets a diet of poison meat balls.

UPDATE

My stolen ATV isn't stolen any more! The pressure we put on the local meth heads worked and it was dumped in a familiar area today and a call was placed to someone, who knew someone, who knew me and they called me to tell me where to go look.

It's been rode hard and put up soaking wet but a few days in the shop should have it back like it was prior to being stolen.

Now to get the thug that stole it and put him in jail!!!

My stolen ATV isn't stolen any more!

In closing, I would like for those responsible, still at large and hopefully reading this to know I’m praying for you to find peace in your heart through Christ and praying that your life is somehow improved by this misfortune that has taken place.

3rd and Long

Vince Lombardi once said, “People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.” He was right and though we are winding down football season this isn’t about pigskin head knocking. Many of you will remember that I wrote an eye blackening retort to the people of Haralson County just after my ATV grew legs and vacated our family farm. Our community was faced with a decision; shake our heads and say how sad or shake our fist and say enough. I, along with others, picked ourselves up by our boot strings and marched out on a mission to return what was rightfully mine and hopefully see God’s hand at work in someone’s troubled life. The Haralson County Sheriff’s office took lead on the endeavor, coupling my personal efforts with a determined investigator, we began our ascending of the mountainous task. The cooperative spirits of locals begin to show as the word of theft spread and tips began to come in. Soon pieces of the puzzle starting fitting and a map was being unveiled. Each portion of the predicament was vigorously pursued by our sheriff’s office no matter how small or insignificant the occurrence. I must say, when asked, I saw a new side to our Sheriff’s department that showed a fire in the belly to bring about justice through a joint effort of everyone involved. No longer as a citizen did I feel like I was trying to win the game as the only player on the field. This was different; we had a stout offensive line made up of a caring community, a back field with a quarterback sent out by the sheriff’s office and myself willing to wear whatever number needed and go wherever the play deemed I should go. Through a series of 3rd and longs we finally managed to get inside the red zone and with time expiring the opposition allowed a break in coverage where we scored bringing what once was stolen to be recovered, returned and at home again. Though not every story is going to end up with a touchdown, our community, in full cooperation with our local law enforcement, can make a stand against the rivals. What must be realized is that our coach is still on the throne and with fans praising him we win every time regardless if our material items are returned. Philippians 4:13 says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” and isn’t it great to know he is coaching our team! Thank you community, Thank you “Dash” and all the Sheriff’s office who were involved, but most of all Thanks be to God on high for blessing this effort. In closing, I would like for those responsible, still at large and hopefully reading this to know I’m praying for you to find peace in your heart through Christ and praying that your life is somehow improved by this misfortune that has taken place. I ask that all our community pray for the ones involved allowing this to help straighten their life out and become a follower of the Christian faith. Thank you and God bless.
