Arm yourself. Dead thieves tell no lies.

My home had the backdoor kicked-in and we lost all of our valuables and the insurance had a limit on recovering cash and jewelry. We added an alarm system for peace of mind so we could sleep at night. Criminals do this daily and are quick and efficient and do not leave dna or fingerprints. If they are ever caught they aren't charged with a violent felony so they are out on the street quickly, kicking in doors again and stealing the homeowner's peace of mind and security.

One thing they could do...when burglars are caught, put them in prison for a long time and make them WORK! You don't work, you don't eat. We really don't care.
