Took the clothes... but I bet they left the case of Blackberry brandy on the rear seat....


We've been having problems lately with things being stolen from our shop... I caught 3 guys trying to steal our barrels of scrap copper a couple weeks ago in the middle of the day while I was in the office 50 yards away. They got arrested, turns out two of them have long violent criminal histories and the police told me to keep an eye out for them... now I'm getting phone calls at 4am threatening me... stuff is dissappearing from our shop, and the state cops act like they can't do anything I hate ******* scumbags that steal ****.

Yeah, the story get's more intresting if I go into detail... One of the guys picked up a steel bar... I had a hammer... Needless to say, I now have a 12 gauge in the corner of my office and a .40 on my belt... I'm hoping they try to steal something again.

BTW: Happy birthday

Vermont you have to keep the sidearm exposed..... a bonus IMO. Ct you have to keep it concealed.... kinda negates the entire deterrent part if you ask me.

You need a desert eagle as a sidearm... the things are so big that it looks like something you'd use againset a tank.... not quite to the level of the 4 ft barrel of the joker pistol... but close.

Not sure where you got that information... but VT has no laws on concealed carry... you can conceal it... carry it exposed, it doesn't matter. There are NO laws on the books in VT about concealed carry other then that you can't "Carry with intent to commit a crime" or something like that.

Haha desert eagles are the ****. My best friends brother who lives in florida has one and when I go down there we go shooting and the thing is a beast. Im 6'8 250 pounds and usually when I shoot my sig 9mm it looks small in my hands but the desert eagle is just gigantic and looks huge even when im shooting it. +1 for getting a desert eagle!

same crap almost happened to me in the burlington mall parking lot. some f'n low life is walking up behind my truck(im still in it waiting for the gf to come out). I had our dog with me. All 12 pounds of him. The trucks off, im sitting there just watching as this *** hole walks up looking in the bed then up to the back window. Looking in the windows not seeing me but seeing the dog crate in the back. I hit the horn and grab the bat i keep behind the seat and chase the douche bag up the hill in front of sears. ********* lucky fat guys cant run.

I have family that liven on teh canadian boarder in VT, I could have swore that he said it has to be exposed... maybe that's for hunting season or something.. I dunno. I very well could be wrong on that, it's been a long time since that conversation.
