You know after our Cash N Carry incident, I was all up in arms so to speak, but HotCatz does have it right... My SO gets to know all the neighbors around his projects and gives out his cell # to them. He says his best protection is the little old people walking dogs. He has got a call a couple of times, and although he isnt positive, he thinks the criminals to be realized they were being watched when my SO pulled up a few minutes after being called and said "Hi, looking for something?" In Hi Acres, I do remember when you knew just about every car, and people wrote down unfamilar license #'s. What it really takes is us all being aware and caring, and feeling ok about calling our neighbors to stay hey someone strange pulled in your driveway. Do you know your neighbors? How many houses away? Lets not make this Hell-Lay where we pull in our garages and shut the door.
I participated with Roberta in Hi Acres when 7 Rd in the Acres was kept getting robbed. We all had a potluck on the corner of 7 & E and waved at the passing cars. Most people stopped and chatted as they went by, we met some newbies, we saw some old friends. Hopefully a couple of theives went by and saw our coalition and headed out of town.
One more thing ! Have all your tools ingraved or marked with a name and/or phone #. The pawn shop had some of our nails guns that were stolen from one guys car, and although we had the theifs name and the guns were pawned by him, all we could say was "yellow mikata" or whatever it was. The owner said i have 5 of those here. Can you identify it specifically????
