# # Proximity/motion alarms are cheap... # # I have four very "barky" dogs. Their job is to bark, my job is to bite. # House is alarmed with a GE Concord4 alarm system. It is monitored 24X7, and # we do test it at random intervals. Police response in our area is a minimum # of 20 minutes unless you get lucky and a patrol car is already in the area. # Our crime rate is very low compared to the rest of the county, so police in # our area is rare. The house is brick, which is some comfort. A person would # have to get very close to throw something through the windows, which are # triple pane. We do shoot arsonists on sight. Another neighbor and I # detainedfour young men at gunpoint a number of years ago for trying to set a # shed and some very dry woods afire. The police appreciated our work, not to # mention the fire department who would have had an ugly mess on their hands.

Too bad you had no excuse to shoot them. :-(

Sorry, but I have no use for arsonists. -- Peace, Om
