To the cretins who opened up my garage in the night, took and abandoned my whipper snipper (fine, you could have had that), and took my son’s electric scooter. It was a gift from his father. You don’t have the proprietorial charger, so you can’t use it. The only thing you achieved was to hurt a small child. He handled it very maturely, and I was proud of of his reaction. He gives me hope. You, however, do not. —Disappointed in Humanity

Thieves are beneath all contempt. I hope it turns up. Good luck to you and your family.
disappointed is too easy a word. i would rather use disgusted with some human animals. let’s just hope they break something if and when they try to use it. but then again, they probly won’t, because they are the scum of the earth.
As Jed Clampett would say.. “lower than a snake’s belly in a wagon rut”
So, they didn’t break in… they “opened” the (unlocked) garage…
And you’re angry with who?
Settle down up there, Ivan Sheik!
