Angry WARNING: WRX Owners in SF Beware of PUNK Thieves!?

Hey all,

I just got home and am tired as hell, but I wanted to give you SF WRX dudes the head's up.........Some punk JUST tried to jack my WRX.

My buddy came into the place me and some other guys we were at and told me my alarm was going off. It almost NEVER falses, but he said a bus just rolled by when he was walking past my ride, so I figured maybe it was just a false. I just gave a quick look, and everything seemed chill, so I just went back in the spot.

whoever it was didn't get in.....even if they did, there's plenty of tricks waiting, so i highly doubt they would've gotten anywhere. all i know is, if/when someone tries that $@#% again, they better be good and quick!?

i'm a chill dude and never wish ill will on anyone, but thieves are the scum of the Earth. I don't give a f$%$ what happens to them.



btw, this was in the Richmond District.

my car NEVER sits in the same spot on the street for more than an hour.....certainly not overnight. I have a garage and use it.

things happen, that's part of having anything a step up from a bucket. i'm an old dude and don't have time for nonsense, but God forgive me if I catch anyone pulling stuff like this next time.

in the tri-state area(mainly NJ though), WRX's and STi's were getting stolen like crazy. mainly for joy rides, but regardless - car thieves should suffer slow and tortuous death

Steps to follow when you hear you alarm sounding:
1. Identify the location of your vehicle
2. Go to that location
3. Load and charge weapon.
4. Aim weapon
5. Fire weapon
6. Ask questions.
