some pos lowlife f@#$!d me!

First off, I'm sorry to hear that. Nobody wants to have something taken from them. I don't even like when people steal my food out of the fridge at work.

I'm relatively young...black...and I'm from Detroit....

with that being said, I've had cars broken into and headunits stolen. Everyone in my family has had a car stolen, more specifically Regals, 90's Mustangs, Cutlass, 2-door box Caprice, etc... all in the "hood." I came outside my apartment in midtown Detroit about 5 years ago to find my glass smashed and my flip out head unit gone.

Let's move on...black people in the "hood" are not the only ones in this country who steal. They MAY be more prone to break into cars, as with some other minorities, but a thief is a thief, rather it's your car wheels, your pension, or your tax dollars being spent on escorts in Vegas illegally. Ask the people who lost millions to hedge fund and investment scams if they fear some young punk in the hood stealing their car stereo or some well dressed caucasian stealing their retirement funds.

On my MCSS, I have glass break, proximity (motion), and tilt sensors. It's parked in a family member's backyard about half a mile from me. There are cameras on their garage, along with motion lights. It's safe to say I feel very comfortable about where it's parked 95% of the time. I have a fairly standard head unit w/ bluetooth, that is paired to my tablet that I use as my media source. I remove the tablet when I park the car, as well as the face of the head unit. If possible, always remove your equipment. I frequently visit family members in Detroit and I rarely drive the Monte when I go, but if I do, I'm never too far away, although it only takes a few seconds to smash and grab. I know the risks I take every time I take my car into Detroit and it sucks.

It is well known that white collar crime is much more common place than blue collar crime, I have been a victim of both but more so of white collar crime.

When I had the 82 monte carlo parked here for sale it was actually a nearly 50 year old white woman parked on my lawn pretended to look at the car and then stole all four of the 4 steel wheels I had on display with it and took them to the scrap yard...

I also live in the not as nice part of town. I ended up getting a 100 lb. German Shepard, that likes to bark at strangers. Douche bags seem to leave me a lone for the most part. If they ignore the dog, I have a 12 gauge loaded with 00 buck-shot waiting for them. I have been considering putting a couple of security cameras up. When I was in college, Some a-hole drilled out the door lock on my Chevy Beretta. They took all my cd's CD-player, subs, and amp.
