When I was a kid, my Mom would literally leave the keys in the station wagon in the driveway and our front door unlocked.


Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Really? THAT would be a tragedy. Thieves can only steal stuff. Never let them have the joy from your life.

Never really occurred to me, but man, I need to stash my insurance/registration somewhere other than the glovebox.

You sound fairly cognitive under those circumstances. I was camping with my 3 kids and came back to my truck that wasn’t there. I was stunned and couldn’t think straight as I kept looking at the spot where my truck should have been.

They had found my spare set of keys and drove my truck over a steep embankment. I called the cops, and even found a library book from the local high school and they didn’t do anything to try and find the perps.

I followed up on the library book and found out who had checked it out and the cops still did nothing.


There is nothing like the vulnerable feeling you get when someone does that to you.

Smart thinking to head home before the crooks could burglarize your home..

Bad deal - loss of stuff, feeling of violation, self-blame for not being more careful - what a rotten bundle. But, you can't fix that one - suggesting that you lighten up on yourself and step beyond it.

Like you, we really try to take all precautions and create deterrents, but sometimes we have a lapse of awareness and leave our stuff and even ourselves vulnerable. Given that, the degree to which I absolutely loathe thieves, and the way I have behaved when catching some in the act - I shudder to think about that happening again.

My wife was just driving by Home Depot, and an immigrant who spent the day drinking in the parking lot T boned her new car, almost totalling it.

She called me to pick her up and I took a pic of the guy in cuffs. I would see him again.

On my front doorstep I had a bunch of irate foreigners wanting me to get my insurance company off their back.

When the wife got her car back from the body shop, the new car smell was gone. It had body shop glue stink.

we still pretty much do that many houses are not locked keys and farm trucks and tractors everywhere. but this area also does not tolerate liberals well nor outsiders. this area just does not tolerate bullshit very well law enforcement is not extremely busy in the area because if there is a problem law enforcement never seems to need to be called it takes care of itself if you know what I mean

This is why these [bleep] are out of control and the country is such a mess (Five fuggn armed robberies and gets probation):

And that's supposedly "conservative" Utah. California, Oregon, Washington are a bigger joke.

hope your property is recovered in good shape, and the perps are found dead in a dumpster, with evidence they died in severe mutilation and severe pain.. with no witnesses and no clues...
