If my property gets vandalized and I catch the prep. What can I do...

[cantdrv55]

that won't land me in jail? Just wondering since I own a Tesla and there are lots of crazies here in SF Bay Area. I'm hoping this thread doesn't end up in PARF.

Probably not much. You'd be violating the dirtbag's rights if you were to lay a hand on 'em. Wouldn't wanna get sued now, would ya?

I saw a Tesla with a sticker on it that said something like, "I bought my Tesla before Trump took office".

Make sure the cameras are armed and let the cops handle it.

You could put an "Elon for President 2028" poster in the back window and it would probably work better than a mousetrap with a big hunk of cheese. SF is quite the echo chamber these days.

Call the police/sheriff. Consult your family attorney as well.

Do not let someone else doing bad things throw you off your moral compass. As soon as that happens...they win.

Also, make sure you're also availing yourself of whatever security measures makes sense - like cameras, alarms, etc.

It’s just a car, that’s what insurance is for. Call the police and then your insurance agent.

As much as we want to dish out our own justice, not only can it get you in more legal trouble than you want, you never know how crazy the perp might be and if they have a weapon.

There was an incident here in MN where a guy tried to stop a scumbag who was stealing his catalytic converter and the perp shot him.

De-badge and re-badge with Ford emblems 👍

Call the cops, and then your insurance agent and hope they total that liberal, EV junk so you get paid off.... Buy another jeep.

I'll trade you my 2012 Leaf for it.
You can thank me later :^)

Super obvious but here it is anyway.

- The only thing you should do is what's best for you.

- And don't even think about taking the law into your own hands.

Be proactive! Saw this yesterday at the local farmer's market...

Read up on your rights to self defence of yourself and property.

Then get out there and exercise your rights with an iron fist.

Imagine if you made those stickers. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-guy-makes-over-100-000-a-month-selling-antielon-musk-stickers-for-teslas-aa3ad325

Chris, we've not hung out in prolly 12-14 years, but from what I recall you are not running out in the driveway to confront ANTIFA in the middle of the night F'ing with your car. Your wife will demand you call the police and stay on that pillow your 9mm is under next to her.....

[cantdrv55]

Has it really been that long, T? Anyway, I’m just pissed that wifey doesn’t want to drive that car until this craziness blows over. Since we bought it, we haven’t driven anything else really. Now I have to gas up the truck!

The Leaf won’t work for us. We have to drive all over the Bay Area for our kid’s games and meets.

Freaking snowflakes
Including some of the posters in this thread.

Get the evidence needed and give Pam Bondi a ring...20 year federal sentence with no parole should be punishment enough. And to think, you coulda had a V-8!

If you traded your Tesla for my Leaf i'd drive the kids to their soccer games in my truck and i'd pay for the gas! Ha ha.
Someone might burn my Leaf just because it's so ugly... but then I could use the insurance for a down on a Tesla!
