Security Chain Link

I find having nothing worth stealing to be quite effective.

I will stick with my flimsy cable lock. If the person needs it that bad it is best to be done and gone asap.

Good point, a comma was needed.

Well, it could go either way, was my point.

You could be telling the Rambos to go easy, with a comma. Or you could be pointing out that they are the easy kind of Rambos, posturing on the internet, with no comma.

I liked the ambiguity.

Of course, don't forget the irony:

About a decade ago, I had thief jump over in my courtyard where I had a bike chained up, leave the bicycle, but steal the security chain locking the bike up. The chain manufacturer offered to send me a new one, but I wasn't sure at the time if it was stolen or if it was just misplaced, so declined that.

The morale of that story is to use a lock that is as secure, if not more so, than the chain.

Whw, talk about Amped Up...

Going to jail is a bit harsh to prevent a theft, isn't it? I prefer deterrence myself.

No security chain is going to last long against an angle grinder and someone who knows what they are doing with it.

Yup, and as it happens I carry one of those.

The best security chain is much shorter, has a Rottweiler at one end and an owner with a shotgun at the other.

Trust me. You do NOT want to cut that chain.
