Default Rear Windshield

Hey... heres some sad news for all you ZO6 owners who love their car as much as i do. Last night Im driving down a local street and some punk kids shot my car with a bb gun!!! shattered the back window!! And then shot it again and hit the paint right between my open driver side window and the rear winshield! Now I have to get a new window which who knows how much thats gonna cost, plus get it re-tinted... and there a defect in the paint! I feel sick over this. And then I find out its the new fad around here for kids and they are doing it alot
! Just thought Id share some of my torment with some people that would understand. Thanks for listening

Did you see the little bastards. I'll personally fly out there and help you with the killings. I hate these punk kids these days. No dicsipline-no respect.

We had that happening hear a few months ago. Over 2 month period over 500 windows shatter. Most were plate glass windows of businesses costing over $ 1000.00 each. Many cars also hit. These pukes were using pellet guns, wrist rocket slingshots, etc....two 17 year olds and one 18 year old finally busted. The man hours we put in to catch the was huge as well. Endless hours of stakeouts.

The juvies got a a slap on the hand and ordered to pay restitution to victims...mommy and daddy owe big time. The 18 year old got a year in jail.

Just hearing about it hurts. Texas is a scary state, driver's here would probably dial 911 and, while reporting shots fired, would use deadly force to defend life and property.
