This is so messed up. They even broke the windows and messed up everything to get the wheel lock key. Makes me want to puke.

I'm sorry to tell you but that will not deter the thieves, it just slows them down a couple of seconds. There videos all over the net showing how to remove a wheel without the key. You're in for a surprise how quickly it can be done.

No sir, just look up "bump key". You will be amazed, surprised or scared on how easily a person can open a door with basically "just the wrong key". And the scary thing about is that there is no damage nor signs of forced entry.

That's no fun though. Gotta keep that in mind. Just because I can pick a house lock with a real set of lock picks doesn't mean it's more fun than taking a sledge hammer to one of those cardboard doors.

You don't have to be sorry, ANYTHING can be stolen, but I rather do something then nothing. I took a cable tie and attached to lug key to carry around easily.

Excellent idea my friend. I really like that. I was thinking, "walking around with a nut lock (no sexual meaning) in my pocket at day is going to be a bit odd".
A zip tie to the key ring and done.
Because of that idea, I will submit your name to the "man of the day" awards.
