To the person(s) who broke into my car in Clayton Park last night: Thanks for stealing that $10, I would have just blown it on something useful like lunch. Also, a big thank you for taking that broken GPS off my hands. It was a gift and I didn’t have the heart to throw it away.
—I hope it was worth it

car thieves are the worst! and no-one does anything even when it’s right out in the open.
I know someone who had their car broken into for a bag of chips that was on the seat. Those with such a profound lack of respect are truly pathetic examples of humanity! Sadly, there are many.
my car was broken into for 4 roll up the rim free coffee and donuts, my sunglasses and an empty pack of gum
I hope that GPS leads them into a river somewhere.
