Check out what happened Friday...

Some idiots broke into the lot here at work over the weekend and took our two Dodge vans on a demolition derby spree.... They took out a 2002 Windstar, 2002 F-350 / trailer, two Econoline vans, Suburban, 2001 Dakota (totaled), and various tractors and utility vehicles. The two Dodge vans were found totally submerged in the lake we have behind our building. What's wrong with people?

Hey, is that the Mowing Across America trailer? If it is then I saw that thing in Athens Georgia in May. That's a real shame.

No... regard for other people in the world.

Hope they get caught and prosecuted quickly. IME that sorta thing is linked to internal disgruntled emoloyees.

Yes, that's the Mow Across America truck/trailer. That truck already had issues too... both truck and trailer were stolen from a hotel in Texas along the way. Luckily it was recovered, but they stole everything in the trailer... all the way down to the mower that went 25mph. I can see it now - someone will sue us because their mower went too fast, and they got hurt.
I have serious doubts about people in this world after all this. I really don't understand how someone could think of doing this.

There is no way you can understand people like that. They do not operate on the same wavelength as those that must work for a living. Hopefully your insurance will get you up and running ASAP.

BTW what have the police said?

Dad was telling about something sililar over by him where three kids broke into a pet food plant, and did several million dollars worth of damage with fork trucks. They caught them, but one of the parents is sueing the plant saying they left the doors unlocked to where his child could get in. I think they need to play a little fork truck demo with his face...

The police have nothing so far. They took the mangled Dakota in for fingerprinting though... not sure what they can get from that. I firmly believe that it is kids that live around here. I see them running around on the weekends on 4-wheelers and dirt bikes. plus the kids around here are just plain bad - it's a higher priced area and mom and dad are never home to see (or care) what their kids are up to.
So, now we have resorted to putting camera's up and doing some other security work. I would have like to have seen all of this unfold on video tape... might have been like a Jackass episode.

It's truely amazing how some people think, or the things that they do. Sure hope they get caught, seems like somebody would be talking after that.

I think a phone call to Bob and Tom is needed. They came through for you when everything got stolen, right?

Actually, WalMart was the one that got us back up and running. They gave us a mower to continue with and tools to keep going. Insurance covered it so it was just a technicality to get by.
I just can't believe their are weak people out there that feel compelled to damage another's property in the manner they did. This is a point where they need to modify the traditional sentencing from a judge... give them something really crappy to do - or beneficial, however you look at it. Jailtime is nothing for these pesky little tirds.
