I seriously doubt the razor blade or hot wire would do anything. Think about it. If a thief is trying to open your door and gets zapped or cut He's gonna do 1 of 2 things. Do as 3.4camaro said and get pissed and destroy more ****, or he's just gonna open the door with his shirt or something else. It's not rocket science.

no I just called to report it stolen I know the stereo is gone, cop told me if I was parked in my property i could blow them away and the law wold be ok with it. the funny thing is a cop lives about 4 houses from mine a sheriff a block away and a state trooper 3 streets, one of the guys in my street got his window broke and his system stolen about 6 months ago and other neighbor scared them before they took his. I think Texas law only gives a slap on the wrist for stereo thieves thats why kids don't care
HB 1887 went into effect on 09/01/07 whice added some subsections to the old bill. You are still better off just filling them full of lead in your front yard. Just hope you don't get any blood on your car or stero equipment.
AN ACT
relating to the punishment for and prevention of the offense of
burglary of vehicles.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 30.04, Penal Code, is amended by
amending Subsection (d) and adding Subsection (d-1) to read as
follows:
(d) An offense under this section is a Class A misdemeanor,
except that:
(1) the offense is a Class A misdemeanor with a
minimum term of confinement of six months if it is shown on the
trial of the offense that the defendant has been previously
convicted of an offense under this section; and
(2) the offense is a state jail felony if:
(A) it is shown on the trial of the offense that
the defendant has been previously convicted two or more times of an
offense under this section

All he'd have to say is that he was confused and thought it was a friends car, he was going to leave a book or something in it. Get an alarm with a pager and don't make anything obvious other than the LED. No super flashy head units, no exposed amplifiers or subs and you shouldn't have any problems.

I've always wanted to tack some razorblades across the top inside of my 6' privacy fence..about 1/4" sticking up..so if somebody tried to climb over my fence they'd be in for a little surprise.

I'd hate to have to defend myself in court for shooting somebody over a cd player. The thiefs crooked lawyer will have a field day with you in court. Your best bet is to let the police do their job. Set up a camera and set out some bait, maybe you'll get the same guy. No entrapment if you just afford them the opportunity to get caught.

I decided not to do the razor thing, yesterday I wold have smashed someones head with my slugger if they decided to come back for more.
Just got off e-bay and got an alarm with two sirens for only $15,
i'm gonna put the sirens inside the car and wire it so when the door is opened and its armed it will go off 5 seconds after, hopefully giving the wold be thief a hearth attack or make him deaf for a minute or two![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
I just want to hurt the ones that are trying to hurt me, killing them wold be to much even for me

Ok, this is advice, and the rules as I heard them from a Lawyer. If you try the razorblade/livewire idea, you could easily get sued and lose. The law states something to the nature of that is someone is trespassing, you can not use extreme or unforseable force to prevent them w/o warning. Example, some idiot comes on your land, gets caught in a bear trap, and you didn't have signs up, he sues, you lose(crude example, but you get the idea). Same will go with razorblade especially, probably the live wire too.
As far as shooting them, same lawyer advised that you shoot to kill, and put a throw down weapon on them so you can claim you feared for your life.
Sorry to hear about your car, and hope you get the little punks.

just don't shoot them in the back, make sure you hit them from the front. then, like Tex7387 said, use a throwdown weapon (kitchen knife or something similar). case closed, and one less waste of ******* oxygen out on the streets

You can kill anyone who threatens your property without question, they cannot sue you or even try to under Tx state law. The "Castle" law was passed recently and it states you have the right to punish any trespasser/thief with death. Shoot the scumbags and get them off our streets, they really dont deserve to live, even over a stereo it is stil worth it to kill them. Call me cold blooded but you dont mess with a mans things, if my best friend vandalized or stole from me I would kill him undoubtedly.

I say park with car on grass, leave windows wide open with all your stuff in there, and when they roll up to steal you stuff, BLAST their ***..
That is the beauty of living in this great state, the right to kill someone over YOUR PRIVATE property...
Just make sure the car is on your property, grass. driveway.. etc.
and when you shoot them, its not a wound, its a TO DIE FOR shot.
