safest city in the U.S. (Irvine)
I've been to UC Irvine, last June on business. You STILL live NEAR L.A.....
I'd say Minot, North Dakota is the safest city in the U.S.

I guess it's time to get a beater.
Does anyone know if a baseball size dent, around 4-5mm deep can be "suctioned" out by a body shop or something without actually stripping to the bare metal and hammering it?

I feel your pain.
When I got my car, I figured why would any one want to damage it. So I parked it on an end spot of an open campus lot. When I came back the next morning someone had put empty 30s under my car. People are just jerks.
Now I just cough up the $6 when I go in and park in the garage. Less of a chance drunk college kids will be venturing in there, instead of a random parking lot they may walk through.
May want to try that paintless dent removal. It will cost you a little bit of $$ but if your like me, when I see a scratch or dent in my car, everytime I look at it I just feel like

There are 3 dents in 3 different places. My hood, ceiling, and hatch has big *** dents from the idiot that walked on it. I didn't take a picture of the dent's yet but here is the picture of the front bumper of my car.
Sorry it's on a camra phone, I don't have a camra at the moment. I hate the fact that I try so hard not to get any dings on my car, keep it away from people as much as possible, park my car literally 5 car spaces away from the last car in the asile and yet this **** happens. ****en idiots who has nothing better to do and destroy's other people's properties. Maybe it's the fact that I live on campus (UCI) and there are immature people out there.
