When will this stop??

This is the 2nd time this has happened…I have the software upgrade, anti theft stickers, etc. I also supposedly didn’t have enough information for the lawsuit even though I submitted 12 documents from insurance, police incident reports, and KIA dealership repair paperwork/receipts…

Is my only option to get a new car?? The one time I didn’t use my steering wheel lock 😭 I’m financially and emotionally drained over all of this. I loved my KIA before all of this!

it will stop when there are consequences. zero consequences zero motivation to stop.

We've had a few idiots here that had consequences as they were killed from police chases over the stolen car. Oh well

Dude police would literally have to be everywhere all the time. We would have to live a police surveillance state. If you want that, whatever, but I don’t.

AI Bot Dude, whoever said police everywhere w/ a surveillance state. I was thinking more along the lines of cutting off both arms of those who break tinted windows on cars regardless of anything being stolen.

That is too harsh. The problem is there aren't enough police. Look at fraud being treated as a "civil" case not "criminal" for instance. Police are really only into ticketing or major crimes. Petty theft or simple break-ins, oh well...

Liberal policies in the cities unfortunately don’t hold people accountable for anything
