Legitimate businesses do not do business at 02:00! It seems that maybe some of these Repo men (Great movie by the way) watch too much reality TV and are injecting excitement into their repossessions by putting themselves and those that work for them in high risk situations. If I seen some stuff like that going on outside my house...I can guarantee I wouldn't be the one in the hospital or dead with a gun shot wound.

This is best left to states to legislate. It prevents a lot of the made for TV bullshit. As an LEO I don't like them or their nonsense.

Have you ever seen that fag gathering called Operation Repo? Pure sensationalistic BS. I can't believe those guys don't get their asses hammered when they go outside to check the weather.

I couldn't believe a network actually but that show on when I saw it. I thought Dog the Bounty Hunter was bad. That show was ridiculous!

My brother in law was gonna get his truck Repo'd. The dude jumped our gate at about 0200, my sister in law caught him and told him he needs to get the fuck out. The gang bangers across the street heard the ruckus and came out in force.

The dude had a getaway car waiting. Lucky for him.

I hate gang bangers but i thought that shit was funny.
It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.

You mean that the person who didn't pay what they legally owe now has the moral high ground? :roll: :D

Now, I have no love for the repo business but........ Now a mere property issue i.e. civil case turns criminal because he decided to walk out the door with a gun.
I'm with you, I don't care for the repo man types, but if you quit making payments and then refuse to return the property maybe you're asking for this type of trouble.
