Just got an Email from my Son in
Brisbane , I thought it worthy of sharing with other EO Members ,
It's something that has already been in my mind and do move them but sometimes a memory jolt is a good thing.

Secure GPS directories, motorists told
Motorists are being warned to secure their GPS street directories as the devices' popularity increases with drivers and thieves.
NSW
Police are advising drivers to remove the GPS - Global Positioning System - directories from full-view, and either take the device with them, or store them in a secure position until they return to their vehicles.
Hot-spots for GPS thefts include shopping centre car parks, street
parking, security car parks and off-street
parking facilities.

Had Christmas camping down northen NSW.
Few cars got broken into and the the GPSs stolen.
One bloke had put it down under the
seat but left the suction cup holder on the dash.
Nothing elese stolen in most cases.
The hot thing to have this year.

Just had that in our local paper here in Penrith ( The Press) about the theft of these items and as you said car parks etc... the worse one in our area is the car park near the station. Luckily my suction cap comes all off as one so less mucking around. Little Bastar@s Cant keep there light fingers in there pockets. They reckon the ok shops are making a killing but I thought these joints are suppose to ask for ID when purchasing from the supplier, obviously not. They should go for a row too knowing that 99% of these things would be stolen. Steve M

All this BS is being driven by the need for drugs, Tell ya what... They need whipping in public , I'll vollunteer the first dealer of lash, already got one but would get a better one for the much pleasing job, the mongrels would all be drying out behind bars if I had a say in it , politicians are P#ss weak, they listen too much to the do-gooders and civil rights mob, these mongrels don't deserve rights,

Wife reckons the old fashioned stocks would work better.
24 hours locked up at a local shopping centre, then let them go.
Especially if the local fruit
shop supplied a box or two of old fruit.
I don't think their mates would hang back from a bit of fun throwing fruit either.
But the civil
liberty people would really complain about the physcological damage.
But who cares about the stress the victim suffers from their antics?

No, no whipping, thats the establishment having a go at them.
They become a matyr for their friends.
Let them be put down in front of their peers, by their peers.
