    Seeing those two meth heads on COPs stealing the ride on lawnmower was funny, not really, betyah the engine was still warm.

    In my yard is hard to tell what's scrap and what's good, but i have a 6x12 trailer I keep all my general scrap on and then the electronic stuff,wiring,etc I keep in trash cans with lids on it right near the house... There's one guy who saw a washing machine I was asking apart and stopped to ask if he could have. I politely said no and that was that. Well later that evening I saw his truck come thru the neighborhood again so I walked around to the side of the house and waited sure enough he stopped about 50ft from my driveway and walked up towards my trailer and started picking thru it. I slowly walked up towards him and loudly yelled get out of my yard. I spooked him and he took off running I made it to his truck about the time he did and let him know real quick he wasn't welcomed in our neighborhood if he thought what he was doing was ok.... I had left my phone inside (stupid on my part) but I got is tag number and called the police as soon as I got back inside.. Some of the local pd know me from seeing me out scrapping and know I'm honest and thanked me for calling and took my info about him. Don't know if it did any good but I sure haven't seen him since
