Thumbs down What would you do?

Ok I know as the proud owner of a 100k plus vehicle I should park IN A GARAGE. On thursday my Audi had a smashed rear window but the car remained locked and nothing was stolen. On Friday two cars on my street also had smashed windows and some small items were stolen. Today two more cars smashed. My AMG was in my driveway untouched, but I called the policia and they will not come unless it it life threatening. I am thinking of staying up tonight. What would you do if you saw someone throw a rock through your AMG's window and going through your ****? I know you cannot gun someone down but jeez it would be nice to legally put the beatdown on this fool. In some cases they steal something in otehr the car just gets a smashed window. The irony is the ****** is using rocks from in front of my home, big ONES. Anybody have security camera's or any type of vandalism prevention devices? Im seriously thinking of doing bad things...

I would personally stay up and shhot them with slugs. No, you shouldn't kill, but a nice stinger goes a long way in imobilizing and changing attitudes.

I second the bat and aim for the knees as hard as you can so next time he does this again the permanent limp will remind him he might get shot next time.
imho.

Another vote for the bat idea. Get a couple buddies (or your neighbors that had their cars vandalized) over to your place and take turns watching over the cars. You might want to get a couple of decently sized rocks that you can throw at the a**holes. Just don't throw the rocks when they're next to ur car, because u might miss. If they start running and you can't catch them, then throw rocks at them and hope you hit them. I'd also invest in a big dog.

I would go to town on them with my ASP and OC spray! Now it would be a different story if they broke into my house though.

E55
Most likely these kids are breaking into these cars during the bad weather nights,wind rain tec.People tend to be more relxed and sleep better when it rains so they dont hear any noises.With wind the sound gets deadend so you cant hear as easy.I would put car covers over all my cars and lock them,atleast this way they have to fight the cover as well as be on the look out for the owners.Cheap covers will do just fine,its more of a deterrent then anything.Also never keep anything in your car that can be seen through the windows.Even a small item can make them curious enough to try to get in.Last thing,always keep the bat close to your bed but not in walking pathes,listen from experience on that one.

As much as I would like to see them in chains - I try not to allow events like this upset me too much ... It may lead you to do something really stupid, so be carefull.

Well this really sucks.

just make sure that whatever you do does not have a negative impact on your life and the life of others.

Be smart about it and think clearly before you take action.

things with and without wheels
Set up a motion sensing flood light or wireless video camera , they are getting cheap now. Catch them red handed and prosecute them.

Agree.

Do not become a vigilante. This is what law enforcement is for.

Move to a better neighborhood.
Adopt a guard dog with a REALLY LOUD bark.
Motion detector. digital camera that hook up to your PC. You guys have Fry's in So Cal? try frys.com
What happened to the car alarm? did it not wake you up? Put additional aftermarket alarm in your car.
Form, or inquire into a neighborhood crime watch program.

This the proper way to handle it.

BUT this is more likely how I would go about it.Sometimes logic just doesnt play into the part until after the fact.

What ever you do when you go outside, watch you back. Chances are there is another bad guy involved as a look out. He can come up behind you while you're dealing with the "bad" guy. Then you really have a problem you didn't count on.
