    I don’t believe the local scrap yards are part of the problem, they definitely require ID. There are people who buy these things and take them directly to the processor that don’t ask questions and they don’t own any scrap yards. There’s no exchange of record of any kind with these people, so maybe states should start looking harder at these recovery/processing plants.

    @ Paul-the trouble with that is it’s probably his momma’s car. He probably doesn’t have a car. Or a job. Or make good decisions. If it is his car I like your idea. Just chain it around his neck so he doesn’t lose it.

    When he is caught and jailed, make sure his vehicle is seized and destroyed, except for the catalytic converter – give it to him as a keepsake.

    I guess he needed some money for more tattoos.

    At least he is wearing his mask makes me feel safe.

    I recommend that the recycle centers stop buying catalytic converters and if they do take a picture of those selling them. I know they already should be checking ID.

    Shouldn’t be too hard to find given he has forehead tattoos lol.
