tough decision. Help please!

[02RangerXLT]

takin it to the cops isnt a good idea, if your in a small town it would just make things worse, too many people talk

Stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Bringing the police into the equation will get him to stop, if he continues to harass and vandalize your property, he will keep suffering the consequences.

While most people may think that getting a bunch of people together and beating the shit out of him is a good idea, ITS NOT! Pull your heads out of your asses and get a clue! Sure, I understand, you want revenge, blah blah blah, but understand, if you get caught, you will be further screwed than the guy that is doing stuff to your truck.

If he gets caught, prosecuted, and then released and what-not, and THEN you decide to beat him up, all of the charges against him could end up dropped because somebody made the stupid decision to go and beat him up.

Long story short, bring the police into the equation, GET IT ON TAPE, and do not try to act like John Q. Hardass and solve the problem yourself. What the guy is doing is leading up to a crime. He's riding a fine line too... he WILL take it a step further... and when he does, hopefully you get it on tape.

sit there on your tailgate next time he comes out sharpening the blade of a fire ax...it may just work

how about a text that someone sent warning me about him doing it
would that work.

I don't know how your justice system works up there but no, probably not.

id say your best bet is to laugh it off man, i had all kinds of shit pulled on my truck, lots of dicks drawn in the dirt etc, they even jacked the back end up one day so when i went to leave it was just spinning tires, that was kinda funny actually

Nobody should have to deal with shitheads vandalizing vehicles. Some people are ok with it, but then there are others who don't like being messed with. You may not think it is a big deal, but to some it is. Also, drawing shit on the dust and dirt on your truck scratches the paint, so once more, vandalism, its a crime.

problem with getting it on video is, its at school. and no way i could have a video running a camera all day to catch him. other wise i would

 

[adsm08]

call the cops on him

When I was in highschool we had cameras watching every hallway and parking lot, maybe talk to your principal and get the tapes from stuff he's already done?

Now, even thought all of my posts in this thread have been against taking any sort of offensive action... I know people who have done this, except they un-screwed the caps, put a pebble in there and put the cap back on so the tires slowly drained.

Put a camera in your cab... and get a friend to take his car, park it next to yours, and put a camera in his car also...

There's always ways to catch people on tape.

Because murder is such a good option?

 

[zukirider21]

chill out dude, its a figure of speech. if hes under 18, it's all good, KICK HIS ASS.

 

[snomaker321]

did the friends text say when he was gonna do it? hide in the bushes or something with a camera and catch him red handed

being 17, its safe to assume youre still in high school right? if so, had you considered telling the principal or even a teacher?
