Here's a list of what's happend to our vehicles in Phoenix in 14+ years.
Center caps stolen from my Camaro
Attempted theft of my camaro, steering column torn up
Attempted theft my dad's Blazer, steering column torn up
Car radio stolen
Back taillights broken by big rock
Truck stolen and pushed down the street by 5 illegal aliens (caught by police , let out on bail, never seen again)
Back window of truck shot out by bb gun.
So about every year and a half or so something happens.
low life scum bag bad guys. I just hope that song lyric about Instant Karma getting you is true.

There are a ton of illegal Mexican's in Pheonix, some of whom are involved in all the kidnapping going on there. So, vandalism to cars is no surprise and I I lived in that hell hole I'd be worried about more than my car.

Yeah a friend of mine booby trapped the back of his radio with fish hooks. Cops came and got the guy. He couldn't get away he was stuck to the car. Buuuuuut my friend got sued and the crook won. Just food for thought.

I have a dog to wake me up and a couple hand guns to make sure he cant sue. Dead people cant talk. I would have shot him. But its a messed up world we live in. Im not suprised your friend won.

When teenagers get board, destruction soon follows.

They have a dog--in the backyard. The only time he barks is if someone comes around the gate, and he obviously can't see the cars in front. When i was a kid in california we had my dog penned along side the driveway and someone was kind enough to come and poison him to death one night when we were away.
Dad also has a flood light over the garage-and motion detectors on each side. I'm just amazed that criminals going around somone's driveway aren't scared the door would fly open with a gun pointed at them.
Cops finally called back 4 hours later. Actually a retired cop. That's who they have taking reports now. but he said that will change shortly. They're cutting back so we will have to fill out our own reports online. My dad told him people are going to have to take it into their own hands and the excop said "that's what i tell people". He also mentioned they'd filed a report a year ago yesterday. That was when my dad came out on a saturday and found a big dent on the top of his fender almost like a golf ball. Most likely someone fired a gun in the air from some ways off and that's where it came down.
Usually my dad's truck is out at the curb but it's been in the driveway for three days with a blown manifold gasket-which we just finished.
They got the window fixed, but the trim on the inside of the door panel is broken and GM doesn't make that anymore for a 13 year old Olds.
These are the good things life is full of.

Wow, I think it's time to move eh?

[AZCamaroFan]

move where? they're retired, house worth less than half what it was 2 1/2 years ago and there's a bunch of houses for sale there that aren't selling. Hell of it is there's people around there that have never had a car touched.

They can steal your s#@t, just don't ask them to prove where they were born. That's illegal!

Even if your the president

could help it

[AZCamaroFan]

And you know what. my dad took off work to go to the arraigment. they didn't show up but the prosecutor stands there and tells him he'll get him money for the repairs. my dad told him something like " how the hell are you gonna get me money when they didn't even show up?!" But hey they were doing "the jobs american's won't do" Probably gave the cops identities they stole from someone else on top of it.
