Default Just want to give people a heads up in socal...

Ok so early this morning around 3 AM.. 26th.. i woke up to the sound of tapps and clicks... my car was parked outside n yea thought my car was getting broken in to or something. i coulda sworn i saw someone at my passenger door but it was dark.. woke up my brother n yea.. fast forward rushed out the front door, serach and assest and no one...

ok so my adrenaline was pumpin and i couldnt sleep. I check the time n it was 4:30ish.. i heard a car driving into my coultasack or neighborhood (SP fail) and noticed that their lights are not on... It was a old 90's Honda accord.. believe it was brown but cant be certain since it was dark outside.. they pull up to my mail box n my neighbors mail box.. opens em and checks inside.. they then made a u-turn and checked the other side's mailbox.. n then quickly sped off..

conclusion.. iono what they were doing but i believe they were looking for peoples mail.. possibly looking for bank statements or creditcards. which makes me believe they are trying to steal your identity or something..


just wanna warn everyone to keep your paperwork safe..

sorry for the spelling errors.

Crime seems to be more common in this poor economy... last night 2 of my neighbor's homes were broken into at my yorba linda residency.

LOL

Few months ago i was always awake till about 430-5am just chillen at home cus i liked to sleep late. My window is open and my room is right at the front of the house. I heard a car pass by...heard a few cracks like something being thrown and then it sped off.

I ran outside goin crazy thinkin they broke my windshield or something.

My car got egged by some highschool fags and i saw the truck of who it was.

1 week later i knew it was bound to happen again so for 3 nights i sat in my car at 430am until 5am with my shotgun (yes pump action 12ga.) The same truck rolled up by my house. They stopped for a second...i was hiding waiting for them to throw at my car in my driveway. They seem to have seen me and sped off. I threw my gun in the garage and turned on my car and chased em down.

They def wont be back for a third time cus i will blow out their damn tires to make sure they dont run away.

(btw please dont leave comments like, "DUDE THATS SO ILLEGAL YOU CANT DO THAT U CANT JSUT WAIT IN UR CAR WITH A SHOTGUN!!!".) You can basically do what u want as long as ur on ur property. And yes the gun was loaded incase you wondered.

becareful with that. Sure its your property but if you cant just plain shoot at em.. especially since you live in california.. If you do.. then u gotta prove that your life was threatened in some way.

also hiding + ambushing isnt a good idea. To me im all for it but in the eyes of a liberal judge... goodluck.

If it were up to me.. ide rig some claymores but yea if only hehe.

safest thing to do is to somehow get their plate number.

stay safe guys. n keep them guns loaded... u never know when u need em. n please be smart.

you should've called their plates in. We need to be more vigilant nowadays. Since econmy is down, crime rate is sure to go up.
