Well I just got back from Tahoe today from camping this weekend and the neighbor calls and tells me "Yesterday I saw 2 black teenagers in a silver Mercedes pull up in front of your house and one of them points at the house and says thats the one". What the hell does "Thats the one" mean? If they think they are going to rob me or steal the Cobra they are in for a rude awakening. I am going to stay awake tonight with my Shotgun and my friend Smith and Wesson to see if anything happens. Shit like this pisses me off!! We just moved to a neighborhood with million dollar homes because the last place we lived at we had someone steal my factory Cobra rims out of my garage when my wife left the garage open one night. Now I have to worry for my wife and son's safety. Any ideas what I should do? Should I leave the garage open and wait for the kids with my shotgun or am I just being paranoid?

man that fucking sucks. well the first thing you should do is call the pd and tell them what happened, they will problably tell you to call them and let them handle it if shit goes down. you also need to make sure your guns are registered and you dont find yourself commiting a crime and believe me is shit does happen the fucking d.a will be looking for shit to throw on you.

I'd also tell the PD to see what they say...then I'd wait up every night too so see if anything happens.
I had the front window of my home busted out twice, about 8 months apart. I stayed up until 3am every night for 2 months after the 2nd time to see if anyone came back but they never did...

All you have to do is :
1. close the garage when you goto sleep 2. Goto Frys and buy a NightVision Camera for $40, a 12"inch Color TV for $20 (craigslist.org) and a cheap VCR, and start recording after you goto bed...
Or get a Pitbull and leave him unleashed inside the garage
You'll be a happy resident

The best thing you do is put your cobra in your garage. If they come by just looking don't jump to conclusions and shoot cus you will be committing a felony. If they try and break and then enter then you have the right to defend your house and family reagards if they break in the house or the back yard area if you have one. Also call the poilice or local sheriff if you see or hear anything supicious make sure you take license plates down and descriptions. If you have any more questions on what to do contact me on my email I am with Los Rios Police (college police)(not a rat)(lol)....good luck

thieves, if they want something bad enough... they will get it
Try and rig something that will pull down on the garage door, so that way if they bust the lock, they cant just open it quietly... and park a car behind the cobra if you can. that way thye would have to move a car to get the cobra.
Good luck man, and dont do anything you would regret! Keep us updated!

If you just bought the house it could very well be another realtor w/ a client looking for homes.
A little late since it was sold already but a possibility

Neighbor heard because they had the windows down and she was outside watering the lawn. They were teenagers not realtors.

Get a garage door contact switch and connect it to an indoor light. If the garage door opens anytime, the light will turn on and (hopefully) wake you up. Will also help you from accidently leaving the door open all night.
