        Need to hold the shops/yards that are rewarding these guys to a higher standard, to where they implement some process of vetting certain "theft-prone" items to at least try to work towards ensuring they aren't just buying stolen goods. De-incentivize the crooks a bit.

            It’s very simple. Make catalytic converters illegal to scrap like railroad tracks.


            I came across a giant pile of cut up rail road track before. 1,000’s of dollars in steel weight. Everyone I called wouldn’t take anything to do with railroads. It’s still sitting in that pasture.

              That is the same ideology of making guns illegal

                I bet that guard ain't getting paid enough to confront a thief. If the guard wasn't in on it...

                  They been catching a few here locally, scum.

                  Last night, in NW Harris County, 4 individuals attempted to flee during a traffic stop. All were quickly apprehended.

                    Not even close to the same thing. If the converters arent attached to the vehicle that they came on, with the title, then they shouldnt be able to buy/sell them without some form of documentation (which would cover the legal replacement at muffler shops, etc.)

                      Saw that.

                      Not sure why the txtk shirt is in the photos. Probably Hermann trying to stake claim to work he didn't do. Again.

                      There was over 100 arrests during the street race and a few cars seized. At least one tricked GTR and a lime green challenger
