LOL. Probably not a good shoot.
At least it was just bird-shot; the teens will learn a lesson, and the shooter will be screwed for life now with a felony. |

If he can prove they vandalized his mailbox before, then they were probably going to do it again.
Kind of torn on this one. |

Bad shoot. However I'd acquit. Fuck malicious destruction of property. A lot of this shit would stop if fuckwit assclowns would get more than a swat on the wrist.

There's better, less felonious ways of stopping kids from breaking your mail box.
Turns out, there is a lot of space between doing nothing and shooting kids with a shotgun. |

I took all the fun out of destroying our mailbox by replacing with a cheap plastic one that you can beat to pieces, then snap them all back again like nothing ever happened. I was tired of trying to present a nice neighborhood appearance at the expense and hassle of a new mailbox every couple weeks.
The local vandals beat the plastic (like Rubbermaid) box once, it took me all of a minute to reassemble - and they stopped since it wasn't costing me bucks or leaving big "look what I did" dents. It might have been more satisfying to stay up all night with a loaded gun and kill some youth for stupid kid tricks - but honestly only a weak-headed jerk who was bullied as a kid would do that. I chose to sleep... and in my own bed. My guess is the shooter is a liberal, and overall bad shoot. |

Shouldn't have been charged. Dumbass kids should be taught that if you mess with someone or their property all bets are off. This shit would stop real fast in that case.

Don't destroy someone's property at night and there won't be no shootin'. How hard is that to understand? Vandals and thieves know the risk, so fuck 'em if they get shot. |

Those asshole kids went up our street tearing mailboxes off last week. I was in the garage getting ready to leave for work when I heard something. I had to resist going outside and confronting them. I had to straighten the mailbox they didn't get it ripped off. Driving down the street though I see at least 6 mailboxes laying over.

Buddy lost his twice, so he put up a game camera aimed at the row of like six mailboxes at the end of their drive. They stole his camera!
Next go round was he put up a dead camera in the same spot and then put a good camera aimed at that. Still there! |

Quoted:
http://www.newschannel5.com/news/homeowner-shoots-teen-mailbox-vandal BETHPAGE, Tenn. - A Sumner County man fed-up over his mailbox being vandalized was charged with aggravated assault after admitting to shooting one of the teenagers suspected of damaging his mailbox.
Joshua Taylor told Sumner County Sheriff's Deputies that he decided to "sit up and wait" for the teens who he suspected had damaged his mailbox on three separate occasions last week. Just after midnight on Monday, he heard an ATV drive by his home in the dark, officials say the 29-year-old father grabbed his 12 gauge shot gun and fired a single shot in the direction of the teenagers. One of them was hit with 56 pellets across his back, legs and arms. I'm not seeing the problem here. A buddy of mine growing up was shot in the butt with rock salt for trespassing on his motorcycle. No police report was filed, and astonishingly, he never trespassed on that property again, and this kid was a risk-taker. |

Beekepers suit. Yellow jackets' nest. Some kind of container that will pop open with a pull of a string and fit in a mailbox.
Let him bust open a mailbox full of 40 or 50 wasps. |

This used to happen reasonably regularly around here, but generally with rock salt instead of bird shot. Everyone just kind of understood that that was a possible consequence of trespassing and higher-level teen shenanigans. Often, parents of shootees wouldn't even call the law, who wouldn't have done much in those cases anyway. Different time altogether. |

Nobody was killed... kids learned a fantastic lesson. Give the guy a break and make the kids do community service building brick mailboxes for some of the homes...
