Apparently, is was batting practice night on car door mirrors early this morning on my block. Come to find out it happened elsewhere in town and the next town over as well. 10 cars on my block alone, including my truck and my son's fiance's car.

F'ing kids....... nothing else better to do.

That sucks! Must have some sort of video footage somewhere?

some bastards went through our old neighborhood about 3 years ago, stopped at some neighbors house who had these lovely fist sized river stones and proceeded to throw some through windshields, about 5 or 6. Lucky me, my truck was on the street, sent a rock through the rear glass, stopped by busting the windshield, resting quietly on the dashboard. Yep, had to replace both pieces of glass. OH, the hole was just about right at driver's head, so no possible way to even drive it to a glass shop. thankfully they do this stuff right on site now.

this was 3-4am, cops bang on my door, i answer with my pants on inside out, flashlights blasting in my eyes like I did something wrong, to let me know someone broke my glass. WTH

We are having a rash of rock's being thrown on I-35 Hwy in Austin Texas. over 50 cars hit in the past year. The police have not been able to find the punks doing it. No fatalities yet, but some very close calls.

You could have taken your dog and let him hang his head out the window so he could tell you when to slow down or turn.

Not exactly the same, but kinda. I've always been into car stereos and have had 2 cars broken into. Both times to add insult to injury the cowards just destroyed everything that got in their way. Broken windows, gnarled trunks, doors and destroyed interiors and dashboards. I figure people who commit acts like these will eventually have karma catch up to their ass and jeopardize their nutsack in some horrible accident.
