BAD DAY
by 1oleman at 10/2/2009 7:44:25 AM


Yesterday was a bad day for me. I was out to mow my grass and went to fill the ole lawnmower with gas and to my surprise, my 5 gal gas can had been taken off my back deck. I had about 4 gals of gas left in the can too. So, why should that make a bad day, After going and buying a new gas can and gas then mowing the grass, I went down to my storage buiding and found that someone had taken 4 race car shocks and 8 springs that go with the shocks. (I bought these used for a really good price too). I figure it will take around $500.00 bucks to replace them. It puts my plans to build a street rod on hold for a year or two untill I can save up more money. I hate a thief, they are lowlife scum. That probably not a Christian thing to say, but durn it, I'm mad and I hope they get caught. Highly unlikey though, I might add. It had to be someone that knew that those items were in the building and knew where they were. I bet it turns out if the thief gets caught, it will be someone I know. Don't you think a fitting punishment would be that - if you get caught stealing, you get put in stocks and a big sign above your head reads "I'M A THIEF" for the whold world to see.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to have a say in a person that offends you to help reward the punishment? Will your insurance not cover your loss? Sorry for your troubles! Have a better today!!!

I am so sorry that you were robbed but they took possessions that can be replaced and not your life.

I would be having a bad day too if something like that happened to me. I hope something nice happens to you soon to make you feel better. Would a hug help?

In Santa Fe we have a rising incidence of organized groups of thieves combing working class/upper middle class neighborhoods. These groups are usually teenagers, often lead by an adult. They have been catching them so hopefully your things will be returned. Check to see if your neighbors had any problem. Make a police report.

Bless you! I left my push mower, weed eater, and a small gas/oil mixture thing out long enough to go fill up a 5 gallon can for the tractor. I was gone, 10 minutes?? I pulled in the gate and noticed they were gone, the police here area joke. When I went to the barn to get the tractor, I noticed my brand new ladders were gone and a new pressure washer. The people on each side have had thiefts too. We can see thru to each others houses, but aren't close. The cops tell us, it's kids getting drug money! I've been hit several times. It gets old. I'm careful now to lock everything. I do have signs posted that say I will shoot. My neighbors' ladder was chained and locked. They cut the chain. Grits, same thing police said here, teens led by an adult. Alos, if you're hit, you can check out flea markets, pawn shops, ect. to see if you see your things. Good luck!

just read about your theft. had my car broken into in the driveway and they stole the fancy radio out of the dash. i'm sure i know who did it, but i can't prove it so what do you do ? like you said - the cops are no help - it's minor to them - they act like they could care less !! keep the faith, brother !!
