    What IS the point of doing that? I can never understand it - vendetta yes - but just because you can? Bit of chlorine needed in the gene pool there.

    Well what can i say. This time yesterday i had a decent old car, right now its a shell in a scrap yard in Braeside. S*#t happens. At least no one was hurt. Must say i was impressed with the speed of the response of the Firies and Cops, rang 000 and they were their within minutes.

    Seems they were just (punks) out to cause trouble as their was empty smashed stubbies all over the street and they even put all old paletts around a tree and set fire to them as well. My car had the club-lock on so they couldnt pinch it, so after putting a big brick through the window they rolled it out on to the street and set fire to it.

    Lucky for me as its always parked hard up againsed the roller door, so im just relieved they didnt set it on fire there. Because ive been crook for the last few weeks and full of anti biotics and crap i was out like a light and only heard the last two explosions, spewin cause normaly i would have heard the first brick through the window.

    Still got me beat how or why people get a kick out of destroying other peoples property. And Midge i know
    that its not what they mean when they talk about hotting up your Commodore, but it is another way to do a good burn out

    Lignum,

    Sorry about the loss of the car, like you said at least the little scum pushed it away from the house. Can't see what they get out of it you can only hope they burnt themselves in the process, but I guess even that lesson would be lost on them.

    Lignum, mate ,

    I sorry to here of your loss! :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Do you know anyone in the mid to late teen age group? See if they can ask around & find out who is responsible. I'll leave retribution up to you....... just wear a ski mask!!

    Here's a hint........ it's hard to steak/break into cars when you can't walk. The legal system is stuffed!

    Two fire extinguishers and a little lump of wood are sitting close by so i can sleep at ease tonight. Pyros are a sick mob who love to see things flame. Id hate to think that they would have a return bout for some kicks:confused:

    Lignum,
    sorry to read about your car. I hope the little bastards come back and you catch them (around the ears with your lump of timber ). We've got a firebug in our area who's been setting fire to bushland for a few years now, thankfully no-one has been hurt or lost houses etc (yet). We know who it is, and so do the police, but unless we catch him in the act there's nothing that can be done. I keep hoping I'll be the one to catch him in the act:mad: . What's the worst that can happen? I've got an absolutely clean slate, I reckon I'd just get a good behaviour bond.

    Mick

    Mick, out of all the sickos i hate, the fire bugs top my list. Unlike a lot of crime, they plan and set out to destroy just to get their jollies. Not to many years ago a volunteer for the Castlemain CFA was lighting fires and then going with his "crew" to put them out. So calculating they are they need the full force of the law on them. And from what i gather its not uncommon.

    My Years in Perth were an eye opener for the crazy amount of pyros running amok. People die and they couldnt care less.

    I think they need their little fingers one by one, one finger a week for ten weeks put over a small flame and cooked to feel the pain that they cause others in the community. But the do gooders would have as believe otherwise

    Sorry mate. You must be seething....

    No its not. I'm in the local RFS. And during the fire session we go out to plenty of fires that are obviously just match dropped.... Of course most of the blokes could never be that way inclined, but, the job does attract those sort of people.....and its a hard crime enforce, so its hard to screen people for as well, unfortunetly.

    A lot fires are lit from kids, and junkys....One grass fire I went out to,,,when we got there, I followed it back to the source, and there was a little garden gnome sitting on the ground with a joint in its little plaster hand,,,,,with the grass burn't going away from his feet......a practical joke. Truthfully quite funny, but ...deary me. The captain wasn't too happy.
