break-ins

[Gretchen]

Then we recruite a local to talk to them. Defeatest attitude gets you nowhere in life.

The way I remember it from Pocket Wall (not roadslide, keep up) was repeated breakin reports from everyone -- climbers, mountain bikers, atv'ers. The ATV crowd has a lot of pull around the Zachariah / Beattyville area since it's a big source of revenue and many of them ARE locals. If the breakin's continue I'd doubt the fuzz will have a choice.

You do speak with authority though, who are we to question it?

damn, Charlie, I'd like to see your music collection!

As to the break-ins, I'm CERTAIN that the local law enforcement would arrest someone caught in the act of a crime - it is their obligation. However I am equally certain they aren't going to be highly motivated to stake out the parking area for the Motherlode.. I think climber vigilence is going to be key here.

can't we just strip them, tie them to a near by gate, ....

...we could but the gates are gone.

Yeah I like music a lot and I do have a music budget. You can say I have a substantial collection. It's always been pretty big but the years with my ex who was a hippy chic singer / flat picker probably helped diversify it a bit. Now, I just need a 40gb iPod, among other things.

What gretchen, nothing else to say? Maybe you could suggest that we all hold hands and think positive thoughts. Then the thieves would just change their evil ways. my, my,my how nice it would be.

I want a body count and I think it should start with you. Don't take my hand. Choke yourself! Lean over here and choke yourself.
