Why do you need so many locks?

[CountDeMoney]

Because bad guys with tools can only be stopped by good guys with locks.

[Phillip V]

Which ones?

I love This Side of Paradise. But I like the Beautiful and the Damned more than Gatsby too.

You consider This Side of Paradise more advanced than 9th grade level?

Ghetto life.

Why do you need so many locks?

To open the hood, you just unhook those two things toward the front and you can and access everything in there without opening any doors (the rubber in these latches also stretches eventually, causing the hood to flutter at highway speeds).  The doors can be taken off from the outside.  The gas door thing just opens, instead of having a little latch from the inside.  Wheels can be taken off (this applies to any car) if there aren't wheel locks on there.

Granted, I haven't had any issues with break-ins in my neighborhood, but I'm not always in the nicest parts of town for my job.

Ah, I see.  Crime is rough.

I like it more.

It reminded you of your adolescence?

No, not really.

Lock, stock, and barrel.

I don't even lock my car doors.

I can, and sometimes do although only because I forgot, leave them unlocked at home, but there's no way in hell I'd leave anything unlocked in some of the places I have to go for work.  The last place I was at, the little punks actually broke into and tried to steal a bunch of stuff from the gym while we were using it as a staging area and were going in and out of the place (the custodians were unlocking the door for us every time we went in there).  We walked in on them trying to drag half a pallet of damn desktops over to the big garage door things that school gyms have.  Fucking morons.

E:  Seriously.  They could have just walked out with 2x each in the time that no one was in there, but no, they wanted 20.

Yeah, me neither.  We don't normally lock the doors to the house either.  We just don't have a lot of crime here.

If only!

And most of it would probably have been slaver territory. Why do you hate blacks, Tim?
