Sorry about that... That's terrible, I hope you can take up the matter with the insurance company. Why would you even do that?

But let me point something out -- maybe some of you are guilty of this (I am) parking your car very far in a big parking lot, far from the other cars -- well my brother in law parked his M5 (quite recently) far from other cars (in a mall parking lot), some guys took off my BMW hood logo.
For now reason; and when he called BMW to replace it, it cost $15, so it was totally just stupid people trying to be funny. Anyway, nowadays I park near a group of cars, but just not very, very close.

I would get a BB gun. It would be funny as hell watching them get hit with BB's.

Sorry to hear, hope the vandals get caught and beaten.

And also against the law. You would be in more trouble than the vandals.

[QUOTE=mleskovar;1846288]you know that is not absolute, don't you? each state in the US has their own
varying degree re lawful use of force.

[QUOTE=raymond g-;1847355]I know it's not lawful in CA, but no, I didn't realize there are states that allow someone to shoot a person to protect their property. Is that true? Like which states?

roffle, Texas to name one

Really? I thought Texas has some of the most liberal gun "carry" laws. So, you are allowed to carry a gun in Texas, but you can't actually use it to protect your property?

raymond g-

no, it's the reverse. in TX you can (given the parameters outlined in their laws)
legally shoot to protect property.

"Land of the Bush". No surprise there. Insane laws but those cats that did that to the car deserve it i suppose/

hey, look on the bright side. At least they were stupid enough to only smash out the windows. you usually don't have to cover a deductible on broken glass. at least here in NY. Had they vandalized the body of the car, you'd be subject to covering your deductible first. They probably don't realize it, but these idiots are paying for the damage they incur. Things like this would be community rated so all living in the area would somehow be paying some sort of hidden amounts on their policies to cover more than expected vandalism. These guys are pretty dumb

mbarrad

LOL! He is not a Texan and he is not from Texas. He just has property in Crawford. Laws are not insane when people understand the risks of stealing someone's property here. Here are a couple of examples of risk factors that you have to deal with at my house.

slammer111

mbarrad - Holy crap is that an M16? Are non-soldiers allowed to own that stuff?

aceer4u, can you show the damage to the window housing that necessitated replacement of the doors? They don't even look damaged... can't they just bang it back out at the shop? Also, did the alarm go off when the windows got smashed? Holy crap that sucks. Could be worse though, they coulda taken the bat to some body panels instead.

What happens here ! in istanbul, Turkey !

hımmmm, firstly they look at my car and me , it make happy me but I am affraid inside to damage it , so not going far and spending too much time outside . After some vandals damaged it ,I do not give it street. I park in paid parking area.

WTF this is ****** Crazy cant believe they did that to a mercedes they should have just skipped it. where i live so many cars got egged peoples windows broken but they got cought by the police it was some people that live here and when they got cought they said they did trow eggs and every thing so they went to jail or i think they got out already i dont know.

Your car was in the wrong place at the wrong time. my car was also at the wrong place in the wrong time but i never park on the street now cuz people trow eggs people key cars and some one crashed into a car and that was suppose to be my car cuz that is where i use to park till i got egged.

JKETCH

Do you have enemies in the neighborhood or something? Man, that sucks big time! You need to keep that camera going because they will probably come back in time. BA$TARDS!!!!!!!!

Cigalert

All the more reason to integrate an in car PC with motion sensor cameras, inside and out. Link that with loJack and send the information directly to the police via wireless internet connection. I had a conversation with the original software/hardware designer for lojack with this idea. 4 years ago technology wasn't ready...but now I know there's someone in here that can do this.

rpayer

[QUOTE=mleskovar;1846288]Not in good 'ol Louisiana... Well, there are extenuating circumstances and egging isn't one of them. If you were in fear of your life for whatever reason thats a different story. Like if someone was beating on your car with a bat and came after you in your front yard because you confronted them... Fire away...

some ******* parked his car too close to mine at the local mini market...then the sonofa***** opened his door all the way (really hard, mind you) so that he left a lovely 5 inch crease along my passenger door...I know its nothing near your pain but I feel it anyways...that really sucks dude!

What you see is a civilian version of the M16 called an AR15. Main difference between the 2 is the M16A2 has 3 round burst (auto) fire and the AR15A2 is a single fire semi-automatic. The M16 is also legal to own by civilians if you have the correct Federal permits in order.

The other gun is a .45 ACP 1911 made by Springfield Armory. This was once the main pistol of choice for the military until the Beretta 9mm 92FS replaced it.

I know these guns inside and out from being an armorer in the US Army way back when. Here is my wife's Smith & Wesson .38 special. A nice easy to handle carry piece.

im pretty sure only the back left side door was replaced, if not then just most of the door.
Car alarm didnt go off at all!!! couldnt believe it!
