Why does it sound like you are on the side of the thief? It doesnt bother the H-I mods . I have showed one already in person. We can call out someone we think is shady all we want
Yeah, I am on the other side. I have been to a few meets and if you want to come to see my s2000 in person, I will go hang out with you. I am not on their side at all. I just think this is "the dog chasing the car" which does nothing but exhaust the dog. I hate thiefs and scumbags as much as any law abiding citizen. I own two firearms and have a CHL because I want to protect me, my love ones, and my property from them. But I also consider effective measures and just feel this is not an effective measure.

dude it's okay we know how you feel. but, to us this thread is more than relevant. and will be here to stay...

as i told the other guy in the seat thread.

it seriously doesn't take me any time to troll them. most of the time i can do it on my phone while i sit on the toilet.

As for stopping them from do their activities? fat chance.
Well, you certainly can't stop it entirely but removing an easy sales channel for them helps. If you're fine with just the measures that you've taken then by all means stick with them.

Like I said before, we can protect our property as best we can but we do have the short end of the stick and all this stalking will not get anywhere legally.
You don't have to invoke legal action to deter. I'm not even convinced that legal action would stop things 100% despite what you're implying. Legal action against existing criminals certainly hasn't eliminated the types crimes that they committed from our society.

Don't look now, but many parts of this country are becoming (because of criminal behaviour in various states) a third world country.
I'm guessing those referring to 3rd world countries have never actually visited one (or are extremely prone to over-exaggeration). Our poor are living a life of luxury compared to the poor in 3rd world countries.

Your response is non sequitur.

The difference here is 3rd world countries criminal behaviour is often driven by survival and/or laziness etc.

In this country criminal behaviour of the type this thread is aimed at is driven by a criminal laziness, greed and an entitlement mentality that seems to shout:

"if I want something I will simply take it and screw those who have because I am to ****** lazy to work for what I want and I am jealous they have something nice and I don't"

The "life of luxury" you refer to our poor living is not relevant to the purpose of this thread. Criminal behaviour driven by a sense of entitlement, lazy or jealous greed is. One can live in this country without stealing seats from S2000s. A crime is a crime whether it happens here or in Zimbabwe
(regardless of the motivator for said crime). And frankly, I don't think S2000 seat thieves are starving and need to steal to survive. Here endeth the lesson.

another seat for sale thread. but, the dude seems to have a good rep.

plus he took detailed pics of his items. unheard of!

no red flags for me going to leave this one alone.

Looks legit
