Get a license to carry a concealed weapon.Too many DEADBEATS that don't want to work for a living.Its kind of a cycle,like father, like son.Our laws are lame, no justice for victims.Have to take care of yourself.

packerfan- bb/bs is real, but the phone call u received was probably a prank? all the goodwill stores will pick-up donations from people's homes if it is too much to walk, bus-trek or drive to the donation center or dropbox but i think the person with the items has to call for this service.

I just got a phone call about "collecting" items from my home for big brothers/sisters. When I questioned the caller, they hung up. Is this an up and up charity call? Or a hoax?

My Vehicle was burglarized on 24th also the same night. third world countries chop off hands of thieves but I have a Louisville slugger handy, hard to steal with shattered hands!

Who says it has to be the parents children doing it too though? Granted there are plenty of bad kids out there but wouldn't be the first time I'd seen a parent steal stuff from someone else either. Worst ones are when they take advantage of their own naive children then skip town leaving them with a $5K debt on a buisiness they convinced their child to sign for and a bad credit history for the next 10 years of their adult life. This is speaking from experience, my wife's parents did such a thing to her and is still recovering from it.

Several vehicles were broken into in the neighborhood of 24th & Forget me not on the night of 12/22. certainly some parent has noticed their kids coming home with unusual things.
