Stolen race car

[art leong]

Easy to protect a race car in a garage.
Take a $2.00 extension cord, cut off the female end, seperate the wires, strip the wires, Place the car over a woolen rug, soak rug in water, attach one end of wire to a good ground on the car, attach the other to the rug. (small bolt and some big washers work well. Plug other end into socket.
Make sure you never forget to unplug before going to touch car.

The boys in blue will lock you up if someone dies (or gets hurt) over that deal. Remember the guy who set up a shot gun (I dont remember where) and the burgler was wounded. He sued and won and the guy trying to protect his property was forced to pay and pay and pay plus time behind bars.

We live out in the country and meth is real bad here so unfortunetly we deal with thieves often. Its got to the point that we now have about every piece of home security stuff you can get including cameras that record to a dvd in a safe and I am building my new shop big enough to get my toter and trailer inside to further protect it from the scumbags. One of the boys (a teenager) I caught a few years ago later commited another home invasion just south of us in Sesser IL. His name is Antonio Smith and he got 40 years for cutting the womans throat almost killing her and then stealing her car. He got nothing but some community service for the thefts he commited the night I caught him. Its made me think before going out at night to run them off as that could have been me. The bad part for us is at times there is only one deputy to cover the whole county and by the time they get here the thieves are long gone so we have to fend for ourselves as best as we can.

LOL.....I hear you. Id prefer to just shoot the scumbags until they are dead when they break in but you cant be trapped in your home 24/7.

Luckily, here in Mississippi, we have the "castle law" which allows us to defend our properties and extends to our automobiles. The sheriffs department told us to shoot and make it count. Lessens their work and then there is no one to recount your statement of what happened. Haven't had a thing come up stolen in last two years here at home.

We had a guy one place I worked that showed me a real nice device for tool box security. He took a lamp cord, stripped about three inches of insulation off both wires, laid one under the rubber mat on his real nice Snap On top and bottom box, the other wire rested on the rubber mat where the top box would rest on it.Plugging this thing in resulted in the two boxes having opposite polarities. Our shop had a side exit/entrance and it was left open during lunch when things used to happen. It was also possible to unplug the cord and give it a tug to hide it real quick if necessary.I would loved to see how it worked!!
