Keep rescue pit bulls all around the property. They will clear the county of all life in a few weeks.

We used to have the local trash loot our deer camp all the time, they may or may not have stolen a 1/4oz of shitty Mexican ditch weed blended with poison ivy.

Just fucking AWESOME.

That is AWESOME!

Simplisafe is anti gun. They went full retard.

Bears are a problem down your way right? Gonna need to install bear traps. You know, for the bears.

Those things are expensive as shit

Its Friday so they maybe back in there tonight. Im not sure if the cops have done anything yet but we are meeting the insurance guy in the morning

you know Ill be sweeping the house before we enter.

What is up with the self defense laws in VA do I need to know?

Went to talk to insurance adjuster Saturday

$15,000+ just on structural stuff not including furniture and other items

Still waiting to hear back from the police and looking into Security systems.

Will update when I get more info

Rig the toilet to flush when a door or window is opened. Guaranteed they'll think the place is occupied and split when they hear it. After all who'd do that?

Did they totally wreck the place or what?  15K is a hell of a lot for just a break in.

So were the suspects locals? How's it going to go once they get off with probation and now the locals are pissed at you?

They were there just to tear up shit

Pics?

Sorry man, that really sucks.

Its a small town and we live on the very outskirts so we would never see then anyway.

So we dont investigate crimes because "the locals" may get mad?

Oh, they will be fucking pissed when they are made to pay restitution

Cant show pics yet until I know the police have done their part

OST for pics.

No. But if my "neighbors" broke into my vacation house and they got caught and convicted, I would probably sell rather than deal with the fall out for decades after.

My wife bought the place before we met. She said the folks in that area are either very well off or dirt poor.

That little town is very conservative according the the Demographics.

I dont think we will have issues but Im damn sure going all out on security. My in-laws even said they will chip in to help acquire the best system and gadgets possible.

Even the cop said that this sort of thing is extremely rare for their community

Or big visible fake cameras.  Get them on the real cameras if they fuck with them.

Do his cameras actually catch the thieves? It seems like after the first couple word would get out and they would either be in jail or pick on someone else.

Well I hope the cops do something now that they have pictures.

My experience in 58 years of life is that cops are there whenever I need a ticket.  But do not care to fuck with thieves that have stolen from me even when at a property hearing at a justice of the peace court when aske by the justice of the peace are you going to read her her rights to a woman who pawned stolen property from my truck .

The woman admitted that the item was not hers and the jp asked me if it was mine and I said if you will open up the owners manual on the item you will find a receipt with my name on it which she did.

3k stolen from me and they did nothing.

I begged the office to search her house for the rest of my tools and to arrest the bitch.

I said we found the meter in s pawn shop, she pawned it .  Please arrest her.... nothing

Cops do deter crime through bullshit traffic stops and such but unless they are out for drug money and forfeiture they really don’t try for the citizen.  Sorry cops but from the time I lost two bikes to thefts from ms13 to copper theft from gypsy and dozens of other times . Nothing. Even when I delivered them .  Nothing

Op I hope they help you
