I recently read about a biker (Hells Angel type) that lived in a rough
section of New York infested with drugs and prostitutes. His bike had just
an on-off switch for ignition. He would leave it parked out front of his apt
night after night and even left a $20 bill stuck in the handle bars. For 2
years no one touched the bike or the bill. Needless to say, the guy had
quite a reputation. He claimed he thought it was his responsibility to teach
his neighbors respect for other's property.
A shot gun or good dog will also earn a little respect:-)
