Slashed On A Knife Edge

Lous car was vandalized again last night. Since she's bought the car there's been 3 break-in attempts, the front window has been scratched and replaced and now the front tyre has been slashed with a knife. Who the hell does this kind of thing?

I want some extreme criminal punishment. Slashing things with knives? Have a hideous scar on your face chump. Breaking into cars? I'll break into your pants with a 20 pound lump hammer.

It's just plain annoying that jerks like this can get away with slashing tyres in a populated area. It probably boiled down to "taking" someones place or the car looked at them funny. At the end of the day, they're clearly mentally unbalanced.

So I spent the early morning in vain trying to get the nuts off the wheel. Then two construction workers demolishing a nearby house came over and helped us. They took the wheel off, jacked the car up and replaced the tyre. That's the kind of compassion I'm talking about. It almost restored the faith I had in humanity. Almost.

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like the car needs one of these:
