How to protect against burglary


I just wanted to get a idea on what other audiophiles have in place to discourage intruders and protect from burglary.

Any good ideas and recommendations for security companies to use?

Thanks

With the introduction of low consumption LED lights, there is absolutely no reason why you should not leave your outside lights on all night. Burglars love the dark and hate well lit houses.

It doesn’t hurt to leave a pair of size 13 work boots at your door entrance along with a dog water bowl the size of a small blow up swimming pool.
Max, over half the states in this country have some kind of stand your ground law that goes back as far as the late 1800s. I have no problem with that. I own guns as well. It's the abuse of that law that people use to, say, stalk a kid who is of a different race and kill fantasizing you're some kind of vigilante that I alluded to and anyone with half a brain who's current with events would know that. Even you.

John Hopkins University student living off campus encountered a late night break in burglar to his apartment. The perpetrator lunged at him, while the student was armed with a Samurai sword. One swing took off the assailant's hand, who bleed to death at the scene. The assailant also had 27 prior burglary arrests and charges.
I like the Hopkins incident. Way back in the day, a friend of my sisters house was burgled. Her father happened to be an archer (see where this is going?). There was a long entry that took an L turn before opening onto the main room so her father sat in the L, night after night, knowing that most burglars come back to familiar grounds around the same time (that's why they're called 'common criminals'). Well, one night the intruder came in and when turning around to gently close the door, the father let fly an arrow right into one of the cheeks of the guys ass. His scream was said to be ungodly and he leapt a tall fence and managed to drive away with that arrow in his ass cheek.

I love telling that story.
