Default Thefts In Nice Part of Town

I too live in Chgo (Lincoln Park), in what is supposed to be a "good part" of town, and my Jeep was vandalized for my radio, my neighbor's space tire was stolen from his SUV and a few days ago my other neighbor had his home broken into.

I think its save to say that crime happens everywhere. However VIOLENT crimes are, for the most part, isolated in bad neighborhoods. I suppose we can be grateful for that.

How is it that wheel locks can be hacked?

McGards are totally useless if the guys are quick to remove the wheel. I have a socket that if you smack it with a rubber mallet hard enough, you literally make an imprint onto the lugnut and then remove it with ease. The only fault is if the thief want to rick 2 or 3 loud knocking noises in the neighborhood and that's it.
