Damn, sucks dude. This sucks especially since, after having met ya on at least a couple of occasions, I can attach a face and person to this story.
Also sucks that you can't avoid this sort of crime anywhere really. There's too many young hooligans running around thinking they have nothing better to do than inflict harm on others and their property. *sigh* There's such a lack of respect for others and for authority in this country, it bothers me to wit's end... but that's another discussion.
I am always aware of what's going on around me when walking to the car (growing up and spending lots of time in some of the toughest areas of L.A., you have to) and it sounded like you were as well. That fvcker was just too silent, quick, and deadly. Just keep your chin up and thank goodness this asshole didn't have a weapon. Cars are replaceable. The few stabs or shot or two he would've fired to make sure you wouldn't cause him trouble would be far more life-changing... or possibly even life-ending. Hope they recover your ride, but regardless, at the very least you still have your life, your loved ones, and (for the most part *fingers crossed*) your health and other belongings. Good to hear you have the car fully covered by ins. just in case.
I'll be sending you some good vibes and keeping an eye out for your ride even though I'm about 35-40 miles <---- thataway.
Hope the bad karma that waste of space has accumulated fells him before he can further harm others/society. :|
