Stupid, stinkin', coyotes

[donniedent]

As some of you may know, I work for a body shop over in Peoria. Well, I was looking at a truck that was brought into the shop yesterday. It was an F-250 that was beat all to heck. Roof was caved in, both bedsides were bent out to the point of actually cracking the panel up on the corners of the bedrails, scratched all to heck from one end to the other, tires were tore up and thats only what I could see at a glance. I asked the insurance adj what the heck happened and he explained it was a theft recovery. I took a walk around the truck and saw that it had the wildlife type Arizona plates on it. I was sick. Some poor fellow hunter out there had his truck stolen by some piece of trash and they used it to haul border jumpers up from the border and maybe drug mules as well. I asked the adjuster how long it had been gone and he told me not long at all. He told me that the owner of the truck told him the only put 300 miles on the truck and it was perfect before it was stolen. I'm telling you guys, it must have been the hardest 300 miles any truck has ever driven to do that damage. The adjuster said he deals with these trucks all the time. He also said the truck would almost deffinately total. So I'm thinking: 1. The insurance company is going to have to replace this truck. 2. The owner will probably not get what he owed on the truck and it will end up costing him more out of pocket to get the same exact truck. 3. It was abandoned so these POS's got away with it.

 

I think the owner and the insurance company should sue the federal government for the price of the truck and the insurance companies as a whole should sue the feds for every car and truck they've had to replace due to this crap.

 

I'm sorry guys and gals but this is B.S. and needs to be stopped.

 

The reason I know it was coyotes is because of where it was found, the stuff left in the bed of the truck, and the caved in roof (they ride on the roof).

 

I don't want to post photos becase I didn't ask the owner for permission. I might be able to later today. Its appauling what they did to this truck!

I agree. I just picked up a work truck a few years ago at the insurance auction and it was a theft recovery. It had a switch under the dash that I couldn't figure out for a few days and then it hit me like a ton of bricks. I turned the switch off and walked to the back of the truck and sure enough, it was a kill switch. They could turn off all of the back lights so that when they were off road none of the tail lights worked but on the street everything was nice and legal. Luckily mine is in excellent shape besides a few dents but overall runs great.

They sure love F250s. Mine was stolen twice. The first time right from the parking lot at Sea World. It turned up in Tijuana in surprisingly good shape. The second time sheriff’s deputies chased the thief through some nasty country somewhere down around Saguaro Lake. Once my truck was beaten to crap, the guy got out and ran. Thankfully, they totaled it.

I had a friend whose F-250 was stolen a couple years ago in Avondale. They found it on the border three days later and it was destroyed. Insurance ended up totaling it. It was unbelievable the amount of punishment that the truck took in three days before it was abandoned when it ran out of fuel. I was trying to find the pictures that I had of his truck but they are on my old computer... Sorry to hear how common this type of crime is and how many people are affected by it.

We should create a pathway to citizenship. That will stop all illegal immigration.

 

:lol: :lol:

Illegals give me lots of work, drug runners will start a fire in an area, BP has to leave and the load will go through before the wildland crews show up. They also tell them before they leave Mex if they feel they can't make it any farther and don't want to die in the desert to start a fire, someone will come to put it out and save them. First fire I worked was started by illegals down by Kitt Peak, the next year I was down in the same area on a fire that burned up to our old lines.

I hope that's sarcasm.

 

I detest illegals and think they should be treated like the vermin they are. I don't care what country your from, illegal is illegal.

Shouldnt hate illegals (how can you since you dont know them). I know if my family and I were living in Mexico and being raped, beaten, and murdered by the local military, police, and drug cartels, I would be leaving and looking for a better life. I dont approve of the behavior of the coyotes and drug cartels smuggling drugs and people, all I am saying is I bet you guys would do the same if it was you and your kids.

 

And no I am not illegal. Just started thinking about it a bit differently lately for some reason.

 

The people you should hate are the smugglers and drug runners. Not the person looking for a better life for his family.

 

Sorry for sounding like a liberal...haha

 

Having seen the damage illegals do to our country I can do nothing but hate them, no matter their country of origin.

 

Our nation's laws in regards to illegal aliens is designed to fail, as I believe our republic will. The question is when? If not today, then tomorrow, but it will happen. My only goal is to slow down the speed at which the demise occurs.

 

As for liberalism, that is a mental disorder brought about by lack of the ability to reason and think in a critical manner.

people are people no matter what country you come from - some good and some bad

 

I fully understand why they want to come here, make a better life for them and their families, just don't like how they choose to do it. Or the fact that politicians fall all over themselves to give away money and services to them to buy votes. Don't hate the illegals, hate the process that got us in this fix.

I gotta say, I'm sick and tired of the whole thing. Coyotes, illegals, drugrunners. I personally don't hate anyone but I do hate what it has done to this state. I mean really, there are areas in our state and in our country that we can't hunt because its too dangerous???? I you freaking kidding me?? This is absolute BS. Makes me want to go down with an AR-15 and take care of a few things myself. And... we as Americans seem pretty complacent as a whole. Would my Grandfathers generation that served in WWII let this happen??? heck no!!! So why do we???

 

Back to the truck. This hunter, whoever he is, worked hard for that truck. Worked hard to buy it and maintain it. Was probably pretty proud of it. To have it stolen by some piece of trash to haul drugs or whatever else up here from some third world heck hole, only to cost us as Americans more money when our insurance rates go up and to try and peddle drugs to our kids... I'm gonna explode!!! Makes me want to nuke the whole place!

:lol: :lol:

 

There is a pathway to citizenship, they just choose to bypass it. Unfortunately our government rewards them for it at our expense. And they wonder why our National Debt keeps climbing...I know this isn't the only reason but how much do we spend paying for benefits for illegals? Or people who fly the mexican flag above the OUR U.S. Flag. That one really burns me!! If mexico (or any other country they might be from) is so great why didn't they stay there??

Millions and millions of people from all over the world have come here LEGALLY. There is no excuse for anyone to sneak over here illegally. Get in line and wait your turn. If I had immigrated legally from another country and the Gov't decided to let all the ones that came over illegally get a free pass, I would be TICKED OFF.

 

Now the moron in the White House says we need to INCREASE our foreign aid to muslim countries so they will stop hating us. Yeah...that's a fricken genius move.

Thank you Desert Bull for clearing that up.

 

My sarcasm meter has been malfunctioning lately. Being the spouse of someone that did immigrate here legally gives me a somewhat different perspective on this matter I think. As for the POS that thinks he's our president, stupid is as stupid does.

"Sue the government"

 

 

You know, I'd be willing to bet that a vast majority of the stolen vehicles that are recovered, get recovered by government employees....

That may be so but who's fault is it that they are here to begin with? Who has the power to make the changes to protect us from this? Not the government employees that are finding these vehicles, I can promise you that. This has nothing to do with the great people that are in the trenches protecting and serving. They have no more law making power than you or I and my comment in no way reflects on them. It has to do with the law makers we vote in that don't respect our wishes and do what they want. Illegal immagration, health care reform, gun laws... in the end they do what serves their own interests, not ours. Now, I refer to law makers as a whole. We have some pretty solid guys representing the state of Arizona, not all of them but some. Our Governer is the best we've had in my 38 years of being alive. Some may disagree but I doubt many will. I hope this fence will at least slow these vermin down a little... I hope.
