To catch a thief :-(

jim p. · 08-19-2009, 11:29 PM

Sure wish I knew how, maybe it's best I don't or I would be the one to end up in jail. Someone got the 4 wheeler within the past couple days. We always kept it in the barn - the owner of the property is hot. He's madder than my buddy and me. Other than a stand that was taken several years ago, this caught us off guard

Camera system are more popular and getting cheaper all the time.

Wont be long untell theres wireless hooked to a memory on the computor.

Sad but we are seeing a rash of bugulars here in my town as well.

Trailors and riding lawnmowers.

I hate THiefs!

I've only had one stand stolen several years ago. I figured out who it was but had no proof. I can't imagine how angry I'd be if someone stole my 4 wheeler.
IR trail cams are a good security tool. Some home builders in my area started using them in houses to catch people stealing copper wiring and pipe.

There is a camera out there but I can't remember the brand that sends the photos to your computer via cell phone. but it is like 800-900 bucks.

Another possibility is the dummy cameras. 1 or 2 real , 1 or 2 dummies. Just a deterent.

Just wanted to let everyone know we got the 4 wheeler back. It took one thief squilling on the others. They popped the key switch and removed a couple small items but other than that - it's not been trashed. Kind of had an awakening when we picked it up - had to pay $150 to get it out of impound.
What you going to do - it's hard to get blood out of a turnip. We were told the thieves was brazen eough to say they would just steal everything again. See what drugs do to your brain

It seems like we are the victims. They will most likely bail out and go right out and do it again. Im sick of it. Crime is on the rise in the midwest and my city for sure and the prisons are rotating doors only to breed more criminals.

Put there butt on a chain gang and they wont want to go back in prosin or jail.

as the economy gets worse so does the crime.....

I had some neibor boys steal my jon boat one night. I put up a reward sign in my yard and the dummies brought it back wanting the money. I was waiting on them with my Mossberg roit gun. They got there at the same time as the sherrif dept. did. I got my boat back and the went to jail.

Seems like since the economy is gone to sh** the stealing is getting worse. Most of the thieves go through more work stealing something than actually working. Don't worry though, your president Obama will make it all better.

Just ask him.

jim p. · 09-01-2009, 03:26 PM

I'm not going to blame the president for the actions of a drug user

Besides, this isn't the forum to get this started in

I do agree ,but alot of buyers unknowingly buy this stuff cheap and with the economy it may get worst

I'm with DB on the chain-gang thing ,I don't let any debateable characters in my home regardless what they're selling me ,even if it's religion.

Can't trust anyone anymore !
