This is the second story of this type this week from members here in the club. Of course the problem is the thieves, but it's probably as much the scrap metal buyers who pay no questions asked. Too many incentives. And Seattle is currently suffering from a 20%+ loss of police staff, so you dole out resources to life and death things. We called the police because the school behind us was being actively vandalized. Operator asked if firearms were being used. Nope. Sorry, can't get to that.
