    Two nights ago my wife's car was broken into and her passport/birth certificate were stolen. Today, I sent out an auto glass guy to fix her side window at her work. Problem is he could not fix the window because glass had fallen down into the window mechanism and the door handle had been mangled. So this is going to end up costing my family around $500 when it is all said and done.

    I just WISH I could have gotten my hands on my firearm and caught those SOB's!

    I need to get the hell out of this area (Hades playground) and move somewhere the game is plentiful, the people are nice, and the rat race slows down so people can actually breathe and enjoy life.

    Damn

    Not worth killing someone over car break in. Not worth killing someone for most things actually - gotta trust me on that.

    Get a car alarm.

    I am not actually thinking of killing someone to be honest with you Sean, I am just venting. But...... if I were to go outside in the middle of the night to investigate a loud sound and someone decided to attack me then "que sera sera".

    Sorry to hear that. I've liked WI ever since I moved up here, except for all the packer fans. Crime does happen no matter where you live.

    jrvs---I have a way of finding out information. I can almost bet it was a "kid" in our neighborhood. We live in a good neighborhood with a lot of trees. That is a blessing and a curse as thieves can use the woods to their advantage. Only one problem for them is that now that I know they used the woods to move, now I know that they live close by in the neighborhood as evidenced by them slipping through the woods effortlessly. Game on.

    More than the glass and cost, it would worry me greatly knowing someone had my birth certificate and passport. I know there's not much you can do, but hang in there. I thought manassus was supposed to be nice?

    You need to report that Passport stolen to your state agency. They tend to frown on that if you don't. I'm sure you already have, but I just wanted to make the suggestion.

    This whole area is growing out of control bigcountry. 2Lunger, we already reported it to the police. I will call our state agency today to report it. Thank you for telling me.
