Good thing the clown was dumb as a the post he broke his arm on
because if he'd had a lick of smarts at all he would've sued you for
the injuries he sustained trying to bash in your mailbox... and he
would've won. You're lucky.

A friend of mine put boulders in his front yard because drunk drivers
had missed the corner and ended up in his front yard on several
occasions, and had hit both his house and his travel trailer at least
once. The insurance company gave him 48 hours to have the boulders
removed or they'd drop his policy. Long and short of it was, the
boulders were a willful admission of wrongdoing/negligence in a
lawsuit because they were put there to protect the house from drunk
drivers. He could say they were decorative all he wanted, all they had
to do in court was point out that the boulders were placed there AFTER
the drunk hit his trailer, and he'd lose.
