Yeah, I've heard that argument before too. Personally I don't have an alarm system because I think they're pretty pointless generally. They go off unnecessarily half the time, and then don't work when they're supposed to.

That being said though, evidence still suggests that most would be burglars will choose the easier place over the hard one.

That high fence and/or shrub is a great blind for them to work behind so your neighbors don't see and hear what they are doing also.

Trust me, my neighbours see and hear everything. lol

Maybe you're being funny, maybe you aren't, but as a reasonable man I assure you you are appealing not to reason but to unreason -- and your own at that.

I am losing patience with you.

You're asking the rest of us to please be victims -- to satisfy your incomplete notion of civilized behavior. That's bullshit, that's immoral, and you need to be struck across the face. You're a pro-crime guy, Spexx, not a civilized man as a martial artist or a Heinlein fan would understand the term. You prove this with every post you make in pursuit of your monomaniac immorality here. We, the civilized, reject your anticivilization viewpoint and all its arguments. Our moral position -- that resisting evil actively is a mitzvah, regardless of how much violence evil may bring into the contest -- is so immeasurably superior to yours that we can keep you in a condition of defeat without effort, and for all time. You may die in your error, Spexx, but you cannot take us in with you.

And then it doesn't hurt to try psychological measures -- like a sign reading:

"Never MIND the Dog! Owner Is Gay and has A History Of Violence."

Sure, he has A History Of Violence -- on DVD.
