they make exceptions and examples of such people. When a law abiding average joe delivers well deserved payback the lawyers come after them because it is more suitable for them if career criminals run the street continually reoffending rather than some average joe who only is willing to commit one crime.

mate, i felt sad when i read about the items they stole :
sorry to hear the bad news.

alarms are a great system you should install. However a great cheaper alternative trick that we use at home (other than having a dog) is to install timer switches from any Bunnings store.

Hook them up to one lamp in each room, and then make the lamps to go on and off as if someone is in the house walking from room to room every so and then!

if the bastards go past again and see lights turning off and on every 10 minutes, they will think twice....

Now, down to business... If you do find them, please let me know of their coordinates. I just cleaned my backyard, here is a pic :evil3:

Also the police like easy targets like that instead of real criminals.

It's also illegal to say you own guns for self defence you have to say hunting or sport.

What suburb was it OP?
As stated it was loganholme, and another in tanah merah.

I've been racking my brain as to who, but to be honest I don't think its anyone we know. Then again, you can't trust everyone, I hope its not someone I know ... :

BigBastard: Thats an interesting idea, but it won't really do much during the day. Which is when they struck.

I already feel like a prisoner in my own home, going to extra lengths to make sure things are locked. Which takes more time to unlock and half the time you don't bother going out the back door as you have to undo all the locks etc. It's a damn horrible feeling.

Thats the other thing, being too paranoid can also be bad. I'd like to think that if, heaven forbid, a fire started, I could get out quick enough. I'd smash my way through the windows with anything I could find, and fortunately if that happened, theres no young 'ins living here that wouldn't be able to get out.

You might want to print out pamphlets and put them in every1s mail box in the street.

"Good evening residents,

Be alert. An XBox, dvd player,etc. was stolen from a smith street, loganholme address

regards

concerned resident"

My dad did that, the same afternoon. Since its an estate, most people keep an eye out for others, there are about 50+ houses. So by now I'd imagine everyone is aware of it. There has been I think atleast 3 breakins over the years in this estate.

Sorry to hear about that mate. I've never been robbed, but I have to say I think I would feel more sickening knowing that some punk or druggy has been through my house.
The things stolen are replaceble- thankgod for house contents insurance.

My dads VB commodore was stolen back in 1998. He lost his job, the missus wasnt working so they were really struggling. The car wasnt insured as the whole thing was worth about $1000. Yes it was bomb, yes it was shitheap, but it was their car at the time, and its all they could afford. Some low life stole it from a shopping centre. The cops called them a few days later, saying they found it an hour away parked at some other shopping centre, totally trashed and full of syringes.

It amazaes me how people who mind their own business, help people, just simply get on with life without bothering people, cop all the bad crap! And those druggies simply walk off to go do it again to some other poor bastard.
