Mailbox MassacreJust wondering how many others had their mailbox run down Saturday night. Sorry to hear the news. Don't you wish when they ran the box over that they would hit a rock and get caught up on it? Not get hurt just caught so they get caught. What road do you live on? I'm on Sandhill...what amazes me is that they managed to jump the curb, not hit the guardrail, and still broke the post in half. I noticed a couple of other mailboxes down on Cedar Lake Rd. It's just annoying...and I will be creating a rock garden of some sort aound the new one. It happens often in the area and kids will be kids. I truly hope it wasn't an adult. I think a lot of us did some stupid things back in our teenage years that we look back on and can now say what an ass I was. Hopefully who ever did it realizes that it was wrong. my husband and I have a friend that lives on Cedar Lake rd and this was the 2nd weekend in a row that these people hit their mailbox but the funny thing was they had cemented their mailbox in and they still hit it. Janet to you have any children because while talking to my friend they have a pretty good idea who it is. So I just figured maybe your kids know them. And these kids that we think that did it are between the ages of 18-21 so its not like they are extremely young. I don't want to give my name out Because I know these kids personally and don't want anything to happen to us if it is them. Our mailbox was filled with food last night- what a bizzare prank! I wonder if it's related. At least filling it with food is a harmless prank, not a destructive one. And yes we have all done stupid things in our day to have a little fun but I can honestly say I have never deliberately destroyed property to do so. It is just uncalled for...there are other ways to have a little fun! Plus, had I so much as thought about doing something like that I would have felt the wrath of my parents. Any kind of destructive damage is uncalled for.
I'm sure they didn't do any damage to their own
property. as wise guy during my younger days , we used to play a game called mailbox baseball - we leaned out the window (or stood in the back of a pick-up truck) with a baseball bat and let it fly destroying the owners mailbox - I'm not sure if they call it that now but I recently got "paid back" and had mine run over - I know this because they drove onto the lawn to "zero" in for a direct hit the saying kids will be kids....well yes and
no...when they are destructive its not funny it
cost people money and time ..cause when a mailbox
is down the Post Office does not deliver.
...but...as long as its not your place ...its
fine.....they should get caught and
prosecuted...PERIOD.....and yes I did things as a
kid...but I wasn't destructive... Don't expect much to be done about the mailbox.
My next door neighbor's kid stuffed the exhaust
pipes of a car my family was going to donate with
food, then lit a candle, put in on the roof, and
left it there to burn. The cop just said,
"Well, it's mischief night; it's not that big
of a deal." Comment on this Topic |
