Sorry to hear about that Charles, but if nothing
else you can however file a police report so it will be 'on record' and they
will have a description of the kids, possibly their vehicle thry got away in.
And who knows, down the road, someone else see that and police put 2+2 together
while enjoying a delicious apple fritter at Shipleys. What they did is a Class C
Misdemeanor here in Texas, and while we won't give you the needle in Huntsvill
for it, it is still punishable by a 'up to' 6 months in jail and $500 fine, or
both. Usually they get probation, however, they also have to pay restitution to
whoever they screwed with, and sometimes also get 'community service' nothing
better than to see the assholes out on the side of I-10 in 140 degree heat in
the summer wearing orange jumpsuits with HARRIS COUNTY on the back of them,
picking up cigarette butts while traffic crawls by choking them with ozone. Good
time to pull over and drop in aoms trannie fluid in your carb before you get to
them and let it burn off like a massive cloud of Batgas as you pass
them.
Since you mention sugar, there are better things to
get revenge back on them with, silently. My favorite involves paint remover
commonly found at any Wal Mart. Takes paint down to metal, is silent, and also
if not caught in 24 hours, will weaken metal too, and if gets on plastic grill,
taillights and other plastic pieces or vinyl, goes right thru. Just a evil
thought.
On problems however with kids, and you obviously
have problems with them in your neighborhood, chances are others do too. I read
a few more replies and obviously everyone has same opinion about calling police.
Every time you call police it is "logged" also, so they will know there are
problems out there in that area. However, it will be up to you to go down to
make a police repor,t however, here in Houston you can call them and they come
out to do a police report, whether burglary, valdamism, drug deal, whores,
whatever. The big key though is "getting it in the system" and once you do, then
go get several estimates on what it would cost to fix your car. Here in Texas
(the reason I say here in Texas is because it sounds cool, and we also excecute
assholes who commit crimes, to hell with their bad childhoods, lost job,
divorces, and other ilk they try to use in court to get sympathy) but you can go
get several free estimates from Maaco, body shops or whatever to then make
copies and give to police with your report. That way, when, and it will be a
matter of time, they are caught, this will be brought up in court and well, you
will probably be the only person who did homework and presented the court with
damage so you can collect against them. In other words, if a damage claim is
held against them, no matter where they work in the future, their wages will be
garnished by court order, until they pay you off.
And then also here in Texas, we simply cap their
ass if they damage property, let God sort them out you know:
