What tech can stop copper thieves?
>>

Keep the chargers in a locked garage area. Even that would probably fail eventually though, crackheads be wanting that copper.

Gypsies are Indian. What is there left to explain?
>>
>>108595134
Put a big glass box around the EV charging station where you have to pay $100CAD to unlock it. Make it something that can't be easily smashed. Basic security features like camera + alarm. The 100CAD is put back on your card or refunded to you if you paid with cash in store, and it basically is just meant to be a basic filter by effort / available money + create some type of trail where if they did get in and steal the copper they have a history of the credit transaction or the shop can review the camera footage from them paying in the shop.

We could always go back to a pre-computer world where cars had basically no copper in them and didn't require expensive infrastructure that is a magnet for crackheads

Gypsies are still way less bad than normal jeets tbf. The US even managed to integrate them.

There's a difference between getting braces as a teenager, getting your teeth mangled by wisdom teeth at 35, having to get another set of braces at 35

and

getting your first braces at 35+

Getting your first braces at 35+ means you can never completely take them out. You'll have to keep wearing them at night for the rest of your life or until your teeth fall out, whichever happens first. Your bone structure is already too far gone.

In this specific case;
Goy-V owners could carry their own charging cable in their car, rather than having the cord be integral to the charging station, it would just have sockets that you can plug your cable into.
>>108595306
We tried that, it just makes them worse and increases their numbers, overwhelming the police and turning the cities in to tent slums.
>>108598316
This would work, too.

Store the wire inside the charging station like how vacuum cleaner works and don't release it until a payment method is provided.

Copper thieves need to all be executed. They will do tens if not hundreds of thousands in damage for enough copper to cover their meth addiction for a few days. Scum of the earth.
>>
>>108599991
We really need to bring back the death penalty for only one type of crime: Causing higher than low (10k) five figure damages to public property or causing clean-up costs shouldered by the public to be higher than that.
I don't give a shit if you're a meth addicted 19 year old drug addict or a 80 year old politician being criminally incompetent, out the door, behind the building, two in the back of the head.
Cheaper and more humane to the rest of society than dealing with that bullshit. And I also want any damage caused by anyone (directly or indirectly) working for or contracted by the government going beyond a million to be grounds to execute the entire extended family as well. Codify this into law, broadcast the first dozen executions on every channel at prime time and the entire early morning the next day and watch this shit disappear.
Contrary to what retards will tell you, you can simply execute everyone who shows severely antisocial behaviour and make the world a better place. There is no moral or ethical obligation to keep deadweight around that does nothing but make the world a worse place for everyone.

Copper should be used more on public stuff, and on certain things in your home. I don’t know if copper plating works, but that would make it a lot cheaper to prevent viruses from spreading.
