Good thread, I actually told some family to read it as a reminder to keep their antennae up. My parents and sister are in a very quiet community, but the neighbor across the street was robbed recently (mid-summer?). When one of the residents arrived home, she first noticed their big TV on the floor, with handprints all over it. The police speculated they saw her coming and boogied, leaving the television behind. Again, lucky the burglars weren't confrontational.
Professor once made a joke about castle doctrine turning the north into Texas, shoot 'em all and let God sort 'em out type legislation. The class laughed. I always wondered if folks would think it's so funny if there was an intruder in their apartment, and if they'd want to ask what the intruder's intentions were before acting.
