We had left the UHF radio Aerial on the Prado for a visit to town. Returning to the vehicle in the supermarket carpark, found the aerial bent double. The radio still worked! Anyhow we took it off, Mr Dancer tried to straighten it but without success, so we went and bought a replacement today. Another$20 we shouldn't have had to spend, all because dopey kids think its fun to destroy other people stuff.
Try not to leave your antennae on your tug in shopping centre carparks Folks, its expensive!!!

Wheels are more a job for a pro. I think, but a bent aerial is probably youth on the rampage. Unfortunately we might see more of that with high unemployment. Kids have nothing to do except drink, get stoned and cause trouble...

Never leave your slippers where the dog can find them - either that or train the dog. Ditto anything attached to your rig. Vandals and thieves are everywhere, unfortunately.

Retractable antennas solve the antenna problem, but when these bored youth go looking for something to do if they cant bend your antenna they will key your paintwork..
I really think we need to bring back National Service and if they claim to be against it then they can go and work out on then Nullarbor for 2 yrs...

Get some of them to clean up the roadsides - the rubbish along the roads is unbelievable and/or national service.

Hi all. This behaviour is simply because the generation responsible are undisciplined, courtesy of the system. The other attribute sadly lacking is respect. When I was a youngster going to school, couple of weeks back, we were taught the 4 R's, reading, riting, rithmatic and respect. Respect for other peoples feelings, beliefs and property. Anything at all that was someone elses was respected. Now we are seeing the second generation of people who have never been taught what our generation learned and, unfortunately, I don't think it will ever get any better. Whilst I am largely a law abiding citizen if I catch any person damaging, stealing or otherwise interfering with my property then they will have an immediate and possibly painful lesson coming. Cheers.

Young scumbags were vandalising more than just my car aerial 40 years ago. The problem is that the police are lazy and worthless, as are the law makers and the legal parasites that administer these laws.
Remember the Cronulla riots? Remember how our courageous boys in blue were standing back and watching while it all went on?
What about the recent revelations into corruption in the building industry in NSW, and the involvement of the bikie gangs? Is it any surprise that the police were turning a blind eye to it all, presumably not to draw attention to the CFMEU and its unhealthy association with the ALP.
Last night there was a Four Corners documentary on child abuse by the Salvation Army. Several of the victims ran away and appealed to the police for help, but those pigs didn't give a damn.
Remember the Royal Waste-of-Tax-Payers-Money into corruption in the NSW police force? How many of the scumbags went to prison or were even charged? As usual, it was just another case of snouts in the public trough.
What about Terry Lewis and the corrupt pigs in Queensland? Sure, Lewis went to prison, but what about all the others?
People are only as bad as the law allows them to be. The fact is that scum begets scum. Until we have someone in charge whom we can all respect, then nothing will get any better. IMO, this country passed irretrievably through the S-bend and into the sewer many decades ago. Time for a modern day Guy Fawkes.

Had a look at my sons new trailer this morning to put a car on it , only problem is that some dirty scumbag has sampled the ramps , 3days they lasted, and the cops wouldn`t even get out of bed to come have a look. $200 down the drain.
