I HATE THIEVES

Had a great time at Big Bend with the guys. Managed a gruling 12 hour drive back yesterday to make it in time for work this morning. All was great until........


(chilldren cover your ears)


I got to my property and discovered some mother[censered] broke into my building where i keep all my tools and stole everythiing, welder, drill press, miter saw, table saw, two air compresseres, i mean everyting, poof, gone. I HATE [CENSERED] theives. over 2000 dollars worth of tools.

So heres to all you thieves out there. Im back on duty today and if any of ya'll tihink of coming to Selma to do you shopping, Im out here and pissed. So no matter what the value of you pickings are, $1 or $1000, your ass is going to jail.


by the way, im still shifting with a flashlight because i have no freaking welder to fix my shifter.

SOB!!!! somebody knew you weren't home!

That sucks, people just need to learn to stop taking other people's shit!!! Sorry for your loss.

I can think of some things to do to a thief with the welder, and drill press, and saw. It would make a good horror movie.

BASTARDS

Mean people suck. Thieves suck. Mean thieves really suck! Sorry to hear about that man. Hopefully your insurance will get you a fresh batch of new items to replace the older ones.

Been there..... when they took my tools, that jeopardized my living.... it was like taking food from my kids.....

It makes it hard to see the good folks that are still out there... it is hard to trust anyone....

I feel your disgust!

PM me if you need to use my welder.... La Vernia is not far and I can come to you if you want.

it's been said, IT SUCKS !!!

Sorry to hear that. What's worse is when you're HOME and they are bold enough to run up to your porch and steal Halloween decorations from the porch... and to your neighbors on the same night & no one sees an F'n thing.

I can't begin to explain the anger, pain, violation, and all the other feelings I had when someone broke in to our car at a hotel in Maryland. I've never wanted to kill anyone till then. Sorry this happened to you mate.

I am sorry that that happened man!

Effing Bastards!

That blows, but this time of year brings out the bad guys (they're hustling money for Christmas, drugs, who knows what else).

I keep my valuable tools in a 8' x 6' x 6' steel vault. You can break into my metal building I guess, but good luck getting into the vault (but watch, they'll hit me next).

I've got a welder/torch in New Braunfels if you need it.

Sorry about the bad fortune. Hopefully the Selma PD finds the perps.

That sucks, Shane. I'm sorry to hear it. Hopefully your homeowner's insurance will cover it, but if not then a .40 cal will help solve the burglary problem...

DUDE! Sorry to hear about that. Unfortunately, I know that same sinking, sickening feeling.

If I can help, let me know. You can come out and use my shop.

I thought I had the Fort Knox of shops, but I just got cleaned out over the weekend.

I had 4 welders, and they took the best one which was hidden pretty good I thought. Also took my favorite weedeater, and some good powertools.

Whoever it was had stuff pulled out like they were coming back (lined up by the overhead shop doors & 2 doors were unlocked).

It just doesn't pay to have anything nice. But, taking the day off tomorrow to secure the shop a little better. Will be placing a couple trip/fall hazards near the service door, and will hide a security camera in the rafters so the police can get a good look at them.

One good thing is I had the serial number to two of the items, so they're screwed if they try to pawn them.

Sorry to hear that John. Unfortunately a few of us know that same feeling.

I hope insurance takes care of you.

Thanks Tim. I guess it was my turn, I just hope the Sheriff's office busts this person(s) so no else gets nailed. Thanks again.

Thanks Dutchboy. They got close to $2500.00 in tools. I'll bet they got $300.00 at pawn and have smoked/snorted/injected it already and are looking for the next victim.

The deputy is pretty sure they're coming back soon, but the real good stuff is gone now. However, there are some new gadgets/alarms/lights/some neat trip & fall hazards and new backup locks in spots these thieves won't know about. They might get a few things, but it won't be easy (poor thieving bastard will have to work for it now....he'll have a bad day at the office for sure).

Thanks for the reply, and I hope this doesn't happen to you.

We met recently with a security consultant on a clients project and he said to put the cameras down low because the thieves wear hoodies and you don't get their faces when the cameras are high. Just food for thought.

Goldenboy,

Good point. I've got 3 now, will adjust the one facing the main entrance. Great info, thanks again.

I hate thieves aswell!!

Some F'n thieves stole my TJ that was parked in front of my Apt while I was away on duty and it was never recoverd (20jun11)
Tomorrow happens to be the 1 year anniversary of the day it was stolen!

Well, last week, both my truck and Jeep got an unwanted visitor. Not at the same time.

Let the wife drive the Jeep to work on Friday, no doors, no top.
So I had the truck.
She calls me in the afternoon to check if the truck still had the spare tire under it. They saw someone at her office parking lot, suspiciously under another truck. When they went to check the "Hispanic" guy jumped in his car and drove off.
I check the truck, and yep, no spare. Great, right before my trip to Colorado.

She get's back to the Jeep after work, and guess what, Fawker was in my Jeep. Luckily I keep my glove box and center console unlocked and there is nothing of value in it. So he walked out with nothing.
Good thing I have my I-pod hidden pretty well.

So, I am in the market for a 35" spare tire form my truck.
If anyone has one, I don't care if it's mud or all terrain or the tread life.
I currently run 35" BFG A/T. Let me know if you can help.

what bolt pattern?
Hell take the one from my jeep!
