So instead I bought a small boulder to set next to it, one with a nice sharp point on the top. I figured it was small enough that it wouldn't hurt anyone, but it would at least take out a tire if someone decided to run it down. It's been six years since I did it and that mailbox is still standing. Although it didn't stop someone from crashing into her house a couple years later.

Yeah I read a story somewhere about kids smashing mailboxes with bats while they drove around.. Got a house multiple times, so the owner filed it up with cement.. Kid broke their arm, they sued the guy and won..
Somehow those kids did not get any felony charges for destroying government property..
