Was looking on tractor forums for service advice on my Kubota and landed at a tractor forum thread about stopping theft with an electrical disconnect of some kind. The first three posts were on topic and then the trouble began.
Numerous posters chimed in that stopping theft was impossible and that was what insurance was for. One person indicated that he was a gun totin' preacher and all of his neighbors knew it, and that led a number of of posters jumping on the liberal soapbox and bashing any hint of stopping theft with a firearm.
At least 25 different posters said that any attempt to stop farm theft was a waste of time. That's 25 people who have agreed to let the criminals win.
What's wrong with these people?
If I had posted an inquiry about protecting my tractor on this forum the thread would have absolutely gone in a different direction, until the mods moved it of course.
We THR users are truly the sheepherders of society. Are we the last bastion of self reliance?
