Just shut up and drive

The Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) recently warned residents about new ways criminals are gaining access to peoples’ homes and luring them into carjackings. 

The “department has seen an increase in robberies and specifically home invasions,” according to a recent email alert from the police. “Two or more suspects are following victims by car, to their home and robbing them. These suspects are reported to be armed and some victims have been physically assaulted.” 

According to MPD, carjackings are so common that it’s no longer safe to exit a vehicle if it’s involved in a fender bender. MPD described “bumping into your car” as a means of “how carjackers lure victims.” After your vehicle is bumped, “you might be tempted to pull over — only to have your car taken,” the police warned. “Stay inside with the windows shut and the door locked and, if you feel a threat, drive to the nearest police or fire station.”

  3. If anyone can recall, these are South African tactics used by the perpetrators. Whites need to always be armed and ready to defend themselves given any situation.

    1. Here in Oz, where we drive on the left, I drive an ex-California car, which has the steering wheel on "the wrong side".

      It's perfectly legal but confuses a lot of people, including the traffic cop that breath tested my 16-year-old daughter, thinking that she was the driver since she was sitting in the right-hand seat.

      I am guessing that any car-jacker that follows me home is going to be mightily confused - hopefully long enough for unexpected defensive measures to be deployed.

  7. I'm surprised nobody has thought to following home folks with bumper stickers that say things like 'Coexist' and 'I love the Grateful Dead' (sorry Ken). You can be pretty sure that most - not all - don't own guns.
