In Texas, auto parts stores and scrap yards pay $15 for each stolen car battery. Plus the scrap yards will buy the cables. Thieves bust the drivers window with a spark plug, pop the hood, then cut out the cables with bolt cutters. My car has a factory cable with multiple wires and costs $279-. My neighbors and I are struggling to stop this in our Houston area. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Shoot the thieves in their faces.

>>2968568my car is in my garage. I have cameras inside and out.
>>2968568Booby trap the lever that pops the hood. How you do that is your choice. I would choose bird shot to minimize collateral damage. It might be better to use compressed air instead of black powder. You could also electrify the hood lever.
>>2968568Any issue with cutting holes in your hood? Hood pins with locking catches
>>2968568Where in Houston? Prolly fucking Gunspoint or some shit hole. Is probably go with >>2968570 's deterrent or solution.

>>2968570> For solutionThat’s not a solution to the overall problem.The real solution is free and unrestricted fentanyl and carfentanyl made available to those that want it for free and in unlimited quantities.Then, the problem will kind of “solve itself” along with a bunch of other problems.
