Ah I didn't realize MDTA handled enforcement stuff in (and presumably by?) the tunnels.

This is pretty harrowing. I'm really sorry to hear that OP. Hopefully you got the plate number because BCPD don't take things seriously without it, sadly.

I hope you spend the time to get some therapy and heal, having a gun pointed at you for no reason can cause trauma issues to pop up later if you don't take it seriously now, no joke.

Normal? No. Uncommon? Sadly not.

Honestly this is probably the play. Keep it small and once you get a critical mass, maybe switch to private.

Strafing is OP, that's all.

My heart aches for you. We tell ourselves objects can be replaced, but ones with this kind of sentimental value that whisk us back to our happiest times with the people we love, well, those are irreplaceable and priceless. Losing them really is like losing a piece of ourselves. And to lose them in this way shatters our sense of security. It hurts my head to think that whatever the thief sells it for will only be a tiny fraction of the harm and loss they have caused you.

I am very sorry for your loss, and hope you beat the odds and are reconnected with these precious pieces of yourself.

Define "night"? 6pm? 9pm? 11pm? 3 am? Going home from work will be fine as long as you don't use headphones and keep that head on a swivel!

They don't really help. A few extra seconds to remove isn't much of a deterrent.

This is like when Toad hands Mario a mushroom.

On the bright side, they only went 30% over it looks like, so while it wasn't the steal that was promised, at least it ended up roughly where it should?
