Can I take a sledgehammer to a car whose alarm is going off?

Oh god how I hate them. I always have a mental image of silencing it by firing a
rocket launcher into the car. They are so stupid. i want someone to steal the car so
I don't have to listen to the alarm.

Someone I used to work with who had spent quite a bit of time in South America told me about a city where the police would apply a large sticker over the front window of the car for certain offenses. I think that it was for illegal parking. The sticker required a great deal of effort to entirely remove, including the glue stuck to the window.

It would be fun having some of those stickers and just sticking one over every window of a car with an alarm that kept going off.

Go and shut it off???

How do you propose that Mootoo do that?

I once destroyed a smoke alarm because I couldn't figure it out and it wouldn't stop beeping.

I moved out of that house since, but the landlord should probably check that out.

I would not recommend it.

I kept seeing this thread and kept thinking...oh god, I so want to say yes..

But no, You absolutely cannot take a sledge hammer to someone else's car.


This, is not a sledge hammer:

I had an apartment with a direct-wire smoke alarm. It went off while I was in the shower. No silence button. I eventually took a hammer and knocked it off the ceiling to silence it.

Landlord replaced it the next day. It shouldn't have gone off like that.

Got zapped in the process...still wet from the shower.

This means war. If it is a small car get some friend to lift it up and place it in a ditch. If it is large I recommend deflating all the tires, drawing a phallic symbol in soap on the windscreen and then smash it with an axe.

Either that or leave pamphlets around saying he is a child molester

LOL... okay, that sounds like one of those cheesy sitcoms where people get into a prank war with their neighbors, and it gets meaner and meaner until one person has to pay for thirteen thousand anchovy pizzas and the other has to figure out how to remove sewage from their convertible.

Funny to think about, but please don't do it IRL, okay? Besides, if you smashed the windscreen, nobody would notice you'd drawn a dick on it first.

That would be me making mistakes in writing again. I need to learn how to use "you" so that it's obvious I'm referring to people in general rather than the person I'm addressing.

So, let me re-phrase...

"It really ought to count as disturbing the peace to allow your car alarm to go off forever, though. Your neighbors should go out there and shut it off."
