I'd be sorry but that's just fucking funny. Almost as funny as when my car got stolen from my garage only to be found a week later 2 blocks from my parents house with random shit from other peoples houses and some empty Steel Reserve cans in it. I actually made money on that deal though.

Every once in awhile a police station will host something with a local mechanic where they weld something over the catalytic converter so its impossible to remove it unless they took your truck to a shop and had the tools. Look into it and you can get this done for free usually. I see the news report about them every once in awhile. Call the cops maybe they can help you find a local mechanic that does it for free with the cops

i was so pissed, that i did go to the cops. the didn't seem to interested in it at all. he said that i would have to file it as motor theft or some shit. but he had this attitude as if he didn't want to deal with it.
"Toyota, Nissan...?" he asked me... "yup. those are the ones"
Then i walked back to my apartment even more pissed off. Paid the shit when it was all said and done. Now worried tonight, wondering if i should park closer.
my good friend recommended i get a shotgun... YEAAHHHH!!!
thanks everyone for all the advice... i just smoked a bowl so i'm chillen right now.

Just make sure you load it with these:

12 GA. Terminator-X
The lethality contained within the hollow core slug of our terminator 12 GA. almost can't be advertised. Upon impact, This slug mushrooms and expands to nearly 2 inches, stopping the slug from totally penetrating your objective. This rapid expansion forces the dozen of tiny pellets to spread through your objective like a cancerous disease, opening an area at the impact point equal to a softball! The cavity created has the shock effect of 95%! That means only 5% of any living being could survive this kind of hit.2 3/4 round

you should have asked them for when/where they do the free welding for catalytic converters... if not, check KCAL9 news every once in awhile they'll repeat the story... I'm thinking of getting it done myself since this shit seems to be on the rise now.
Oh yeah and I forgot to send it to you but I got a great picture of you and Alex MORPH at the Nikita opening we spoke for a bit hahaha check your PM Are you still doing bookings for Circus? I have a few names in mind that could really work out

in case anyone cares the price of platinum right now is somewhere around $1100 an ounce and a catalytic converter has between 1 and 15 grams of platinum (the more environmentally friendly or the bigger the car the more the platinum).
there are 28 grams in an ounce, so on a really nice and big CC you can make around $500
At the beginning of 2008 is when people really started to steal them - the price was as high as $2000 per ounce
