Just think what it would be like to actually catch the bast$%d as he was Keying your car....Now just try not putting the ^^^ker in the Hospital
Damn... I hear ya. That's just total BS. Some ****ing people, seriously. I just can't understand it.
On a related note I took a friend to get something at the corner convenience store at night in my S14 and parked right in front of the store. I thought I'd be right back but I locked it anyway (which I just about always do unless I'm like right beside it). We took a few minutes cause she decided to pay for something in coins (lol) and by the time we got back outside there was some black dude in a hoodie standing right beside my car like two feet from the door. I didn't think much of it at the moment other than it being kinda awkward and just walked past him and opened her up and he's like, "nice car, how much? (I thought he was talking about my friend at first lol) How much do you want for it?" or something like that and I told him it wasn't for sale (I could clearly tell he wasn't interested in paying a reasonable price anyway, and he was just talking to avoid the awkwardness).
Then after I left while talking about it with my friend we realized the obvious, that he was totally trying to steal my car and that's why he was so close to it, and my friend said she saw him on the phone, probably calling up his buddies to come and jack it. At first I was kinda freaking out cause I wasn't sure if I locked it or not (like I originally said, I thought I'd be right back) and something could have easily happened if I didn't (even though I got back in time and it was locked regardless), but I remember unlocking the passenger door from the inside when I got back in which means I locked it. I definitely think the dude tried to open it and probably would have at least took my radio and PSP and whatever else he could if it was unlocked, so I mean ****, that pissed me off and also got me more paranoid for the better.
I guess the lesson is, always lock your car even if you're just going a bunch of steps away and you'll be right back. I already do that, for the most part at least, and I did in this situation too (thankfully, damn) but anyway, it's really not an understatement.
