An open letter to the party who attempted to break into my car
Dear Sir(s)/Madam(s),
I have recently noticed the results of you handiwork on my car's door locks from the other night. While I would normally admonish you for the damage done to my driver's door, I feel it dishonest to ignore the other results of your attempts at gaining entry to my car. First, thank you for not attempting to smash the windows. Second, thank you for assuming the rear left door was locked like the others. It has not always locked properly, and had been acting up as of late. In fact, it was not locked when you worked on it. The operation of the lock has been flawless since your attempt to force it, and I would like to thank you for fixing my door. Third, and possibly the most important, I am all too happy to be able to thank you for not damaging my car's antennas. They have often been a target of vandalism, and besides being relatively costly to replace, severely limit my ability to exercise the privileges and responsibilities my amateur radio license confers. Having had both antennnas damaged beyond use in a couple past attacks on my property, I find it refreshing to not have to go through the effort of mail-ordering the antennas, and having to remove the rear seat and center console of my car in order to remove the defunct transmission lines.
Sincerely,
Soylent_Bomb
