Funny how stuff like that can backfire on you.

I used to work with an older man who didn't like the fact that high school kids would lean against his Buick. This was "back in the day", and he lived across the street from a high school. So, he "said" he rigged up a 110V system that would provide a jolt to anyone touching the car...when they became the path to ground. Seems to me, that such a system could kill a person...only takes 800ma to stop your heart....and that todays' court system would find you guilty of manslaughter...or worse. Or, you could be found Not Guilty....which doesn't mean you'd be innocent....just sayin'.
