Thieving scumbags

ANTON · Post by **ANTON** » Thu Apr 09, 09 10:10 am

I keep a motion and sound sensitive baby monitor in the garage and one indoors and that lets me know very thing. Alarms are too common and most people ignore them. I too lived in South Africa and there you could just shoot them.
lots of people do the shot gun thing in Africa minus the bucket and the scumbag can limp for the rest of his life.

My mates a chippy, when he was into his karting he had a couple of attempts on his sheds. So he left planks of wood with nails though them upturned on the floor ready for when the scum jumped through the windows.

When the police came round to take statements or whatever, they saw this and told him to remove it immediately or he could be prosecuted

He did, but put it all back when the police had gone, after all he was just an untidy worker wasn't he.......

He's moved since but his house was on the news last year, his old sheds were being used as a gun factory!

Was listening to an ex-burglar turned security expert on the radio the other day, who reffered to doing his "window shopping" on google earth.

No different than driving past your house, as said before.

How long would you have to spend window shopping ... and just how good a look would you get...

I think Google Earth being a virtual "shop" for thieves is a bit of an exaggeration, I don't think there's enough detail there to help them, unless you have an obvious stash of lovely things around the back of your house and no fence!

The fact remains that there really is no deterrent, nine out of ten thieves get away with it, in many cases because the victims see no point in reporting it, the police are under too much pressure, being under staffed and under financed...then when they do catch them, in the rare cases they are sentenced, they give them a nice comfortable hotel room with all mod cons.

I'd put them to bed with a shovel.

This was straight out of the mouth of a burglar, it's what he did.

He was looking for attack points, obvious alarm boxes (or dodgy fake ones) and cctv systems. And not looking dodgy to the neighbourhood watch in the process.

If you can see the stig through an office window, I'm sure you can see the obvious attack points and escape routes.

I agree totally, put them to bed with a shovel. As far as I'm concerned, you should lose any "rights" you have as soon as you flout someone else's.

A large cardboard cut-out of The Stig placed in the office window just for passers by to see. It wasn't the real Stig. He doesn't really live in a race suit and helmet.

Some say, he sweats so much in that suit it shrank, so he can't get it off...
