  • that news reporter at the start is fit, i'd shag her any day

  • Banks booby-trap money with dye packs, so why not do something similar? Replace the access doors with ones that require a special tool to remove, and that hold a cannister on the inside. If the door forced open without the tool, the cannister explodes. The cannister could contain dye and/or mace.

    Aerosol "shreekers" are sold for personal defense. If the cannister made a loud noise, it would alert people in the area that something was going on.

    Classic!

  • @herauthon is it cost effective? why are the police not watching out for this instead of eating donutz? the same people who complain about big government are the ones whining when the street light does not work and their utility payments go up. if welfare was sufficient to provide for what a person needs, and those who have extra gave more(not just the uber rich but the middle class too.(who are not poor)) we would not be having these problems. societys cost money to run.

  • @Lokivoid it'snot ripp9ing off it's being a middle man to the person who can't get their material to the higher paying place. convenience comes at a price.

  • @jblucio3177 why would you be glad you own family went to prison??? I'd hate to be in your family.

  • @map250r anybody can make a "special tool" with a die grinder and a blank piece of steel rod. 

  • My uncle got caught for stealing copper and went to prison for it for which I'm glad he did, so I hope all copper thieves get what they deserve.

  • I work at a property in Vegas, we was hit really bad by copper thieves thy stole the copper from 7 poles before we found out they cause $7000 in damage we was able to save 11 poles before they did the come-back they damage the gate sensors too, in order to get in.

  • Stanley Security Solutions in the UK now sell this product. They also provide installation, service and have their own monitoring centre to call the Police instantly
