LUCKY Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 At the trestle parking area on 6/28 between 11am and 6pm our car was car prowled, clothes were went trough, top left off the cooler, nothing was stolen because we did not leave any credit cards in the vehicle, the car was locked back up when we got back. Beware the credit card thieves are on the prowl again they can't seem to leave this cash cow alone no matter how hot it is. Any of you high tec sprayers know how to set up a micro cam so we can catch them in the act, pics of the thiefs would be cool. Don’t leave credit cards in your car!!!!! Quote
mike_m Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Slightly different but related, we left a car at the South Bellevue P&R Saturday while we were on Lundin, came back and some a**hole had stolen the catalytic converter from her Toyota pickup. It's not just the trailheads. Quote
letsroll Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 You would think that some one would have seen the catalytic converter being stolen. I have thought twice about checking out Exit 38 cause of the breakins. That and not enough easy trad. Quote
To_The_Top Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 West Seattle has seen several CC stolen off of Tahomas this year. Quote
lancegranite Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 The girl next door had hers stolen up at Lake Wenatchee the other day. Quote
chef_raekwon Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 This might be a stupid question, but is it easy to tell if the cat. converter has been stolen from your Taco? Quote

bstach Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Have you seen that vigilante man Have you seen that vigilante man Have you seen that vigilante man I’ve been hearin’ his name all over this land Lonely nights down in the engine house Sleepin’ just as still as a mouse Man comes home, chase the crowds in the rain That’s a vigilante man Vigilante man Vigilante man Well I ramble around from town to town Ramble ¡®round from town to town And they hunted us a while like a wild herd of cattle That’s a vigilante man Tell me why does that vigilante man Tell me why does that vigilante man Carry that sawed off shotgun in his hand Would he shoot his brother and sister down Have you seen that vigilante man Have you seen that vigilante man Have you seen that vigilante man I’ve been hearin’ his name all over this land Vigilante man Vigilante man Vigilante man Vigilante man Vigilante man Vigilante man Quote
LUCKY Posted July 3, 2008 Author Posted July 3, 2008 Ok I am really getting tired of my car being prowled so I bought a cheep micro cam, I could not afford a good one, and it would be just my luck the would find it and steal it. It would be cool to post a some pic's of him in the act and one of you go that's the guy that lives next door....BUSTED Quote
Crillz Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 If anyone had the will or the cash, they have car alarms that will notify you via remote that your car is being broken into. You could basically set up a sting - a good old fashioned ass whoopin' would be good justice. Quote
sobo Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Does anyone see anything wrong with sitting up in the hills a ways with a Winchester 30-06, some 240 grain hollow points, a Bushnell 9X scope, and a clear line of sight? You know, not to kill 'em or anything unruly like that. Just spray a few rounds at their feet and at their rig as they peel outta the parking lot, squealing like stuck pigs. Just asking... Quote

Maybe someone should call in: BIG LOU! Quote
Off_White Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Does anyone see anything wrong ... Well, given that earlier encounters with the miscreants, as well as overall profile for this scam conducted all over the west, suggests that the organizing principle might be the Russian mob rather than a few individual meth heads, it might be a bigger thing than one might want to mess with too personally. I didn't get the impression it was all that fun being Buford Pusser. Quote

Bug Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 The whole camera thing is a waste of time and money too. Someone here actually got pics of the villans in action complete with pics of their license plate. The King County Sherrif dept did a big whoppin 0. Quote
sobo Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 yer shitting me, Keith. WTF was their reasoning behind their inaction? KCSO afraid to take on the Russian mob? Quote

Too busy solving seatbelt crime, apprehending helmetless bicycle riders, and chasing down cell phone users, I suspect. Quote
sobo Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 seatbelt crime that's a good one! Ya know, you're an idiot if you don't wear one, but I would posit that it's your choice. Of course, if you end up a vegetable after not wearing one, I do not think it's the state's job (nor mine, through my taxes) to pay for your upkeep. Same with motorcycle helmets. Reap what ye sow.

Fairweather Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Okay, what I meant to say was that I figured you literary mavens would get it without prompting. I did. "Shrugging Icon" = Atlas Shrugged? I think you don't get that I got it but I might not be getting the rhetorical meaning in your got it. Quote
Off_White Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Okay, I got it. You know, a rugged individualist got no use for a seatbelt, right? Never mind, grasping analogy anyway. Quote
