FUBAR
Sorry for the crappy, low-res picture. At this point, my cellphone camera is all I've got. Thank you to everyone for the very kind comments in the previous post. I'll be back to answer some the questions posed there.The picture doesn't really capture the raw damage of it all: the dead bolt is bent inside its sheath (or whatever you'd call it), the strike plates were blown down the hall, the jamb lost an 18" section or so, the molding was knocked off, the bulls-eye medalion was wrecked, and the doorknob's shaft was broken in half. There is one foot print on the door (there are voodoo spells for footprints and the police have a photo) so it must have been a hell of a kick.

The BASTIGES! I sincerely hope that I am correct and there is a special place in hell for those who violate other people's space, trash their home, and steal from them. It's probably the same place where Code Enforcement staff and my recently-fired contractor will spend eternity. My sympathy to you and your family. I hope they catch whoever did it.
I agree with g8rally...
Damn. Maybe someday they will be (un)lucky enough to be in hubs prison. Hmmmmmmmmmm....Karma she is a &*^%$
Now would be a good time to get a bunch of empty prescription bottles and fill them with laxatives. I know, I'm evil.
You have a 30% chance of getting broken into again in the next couple of months.
"Now would be a good time to get a bunch of empty prescription bottles and fill them with laxatives...."
Yes lord! And preferably inside some Oxycontin bottles, or codeine or Ritalin or something like that! If you really want to be a horse's arse, fill a new plastic gas can with some sort of acid and leave it where the dirty scuts will get hold of it!
Oh, that's terrible! I think g8rally said it best. My sentiments exactly.
Oh my God, John. I cannot believe this. What assholes. And I'm sure that the damage to your door probably makes you as sick as the property that you lost. Maybe get a gigantic mean dog?
I'm so sorry.
In Los Angeles we have these horrible metal doors to discourage karate kick break ins-- but they are so UGLY. I have two-- one on the front and one on the back door. Dogs. My suggestion-- a new dog. A dog would have barked his head off and attacked. There are so many dogs looking for good homes right now in the shelters. People are dumping their pets like trash because of the economy. Please really consider a dog they are great friends and protection.
Unbelievable. The scum. I live in the city and crime seems all around, but that photo still really shocks me. That is one angry criminal.
The house I was renovating a few years ago was broken into and all my tools stolen. I figured in 2 to 3 weeks they'd be back again, it would give me enough time to get the insurance check and buy new tools. Like clockwork 3 weeks later they broke back in, but this time there was nothing to steal, except a case of gatorade....I feel for ya. Hopefully they get caught.
Shit.
That seems to sum it all up.
This SUCKS!!
