We have this guy, we nicknamed him donkey for a reason, and he plays a little crazy sometimes, i think just because he gets bored. Anyways, he likes to go all in blind sometimes, and the other night he went 3-0, even when he had the worst hand going in preflop. What would you do?

Wait for a big hand and call him. If you get your chips in the pot with the best hand, there isn't much else you can do. Eventually, his luck will run out and you'll take a lot of money from him.

Sometimes in my live games, I will call blind from the BB.
It seems to put the other players off a little bit.

I've raised once or twice blind and it has the same effect, unless they're holding pocket Aces

I think what the OP means is that some donkey is randomly going all in constantly preflop, which is clearly not a sound strategy at all.

What this guy said.

if the people are calling him with very solid hands AA or KK or AK suited and losing then he's just getting very lucky. if they are calling him with weaker hands than that they are gambling pretty loosely as well, so do donkeys travel in herds ? lol
