rock store helmet thief

[ungeheuer]

.... as long as there is jealousy or desire, there will be dishonesty and thievery.   it's just part of the human condition, just like crabs, the clap, taxes, hemorrhoids and soccer mom drivers.

I know.  We all know.  I was lamenting that its so, not denying the bleeding obvious reality  .

I have rose colored glasses, but I'm not naive enough to wear them often.  In fact, I think I loaned mine to Ryan so he'd think Helga, his new 999, is pretty. 

Well....compared to Ryan.....

Funny... I hate you.

Look who's talking...

I hate you more.



Did Cloner mention that I got a 999? Because I did! 

[RichD]

agreed.  I wish they'd caught him in the act.  stealing shit from bikers when there's a bunch of bikers around?  how ugly would that get?

Here in Texas you can fix that problem quickly -legally- and permanently.
*POP* "...thanks, I'll take that back now."

Yeah... but there's gotta be a bunch of paperwork to deal with afterwards, no?

No.

In Tx they will "process" (arrest) you and let you go home.
A grand Jury convenes in the following day, discusses the situation, and dismisses all charges.

Happens all the time here.

I hate thieves. I am always weary of leaving my helmet on my bike untethered.

A few years ago, there was a guy out in Phoenix who was stealing bikes at trackdays. He would roll unattended bikes into his enclosed trailer with his own trackbike. Thankfully they finally caught him.

Really? In Texas you can shoot someone who is stealing a couple hundred bucks worth of your stuff and not threatening you or anyone else in the process? And the cops just send you home? Really? How often does that happen?

I always take a dump in my helmet if I'm going to leave it on my bike unattended.  That way, either it doesn't get stolen or the thief gets a shitty surprise.  I also only wear pre-crashed helmets, so that they're worthless to thieves and provide no protection to a thief if he crashes.  To top it all off, I rock the disco helmet, which no self-respecting thief would be caught dead in.

How often does that happen?

Considering the potential consequences for the thief ... I'd suggest not very often

That helmet, in Texas, IS NOT worth a just a couple hundred bucks.  It is worth YOUR LIFE.

So a thief has to ask himself "...do I feel lucky? ...is this helmet worth my life to me?..."

Some criminals say "yes".  

Someone stealing your stuff?  Shoot 'em.
Someone on your property after dark?  Shoot 'em.
Breaking and entering?  Shoot 'em.
Kid stealing the stereo outta' your car?  Shoot 'em.

There is a very loooooooong list of good reasons to shoot someone in Texas 
...and the only carry here is concealed carry ...so you never know who is packing where.
