    Exactly. It's just too bad he missed the other one.

    I like the shop owners thinking!

    Imitators beware though, LEO does not consider those rounds to be “less than lethal” in some leftist districts.

    Any schematics on where to make the fastening holes or the size of the protection-plate? (Thanks Kaptainkid1for the write up!).

    I doubt this incident suddenly stops them from being stolen... (in case link disappears or Dutch is too hard: Prius owner wants to drive his daughter to school and finds dead mans legs sticking out from under his Prius, some 20 miles from my home. BTW, daughter (5) was told the man was sleeping, under the car...).
