yeah it looks too easy.
funny because most of the poeple i know living out your way or that have lived out there feel safe leaving their stuff unlocked.
having lived near philly my whole life, i lock my front door if ia am in the back yard.
again it just looks too easy.

first thing i did when i moved in was changed all of the locks and added deadbolts.
i still feel weird not having bars on my windows.

some of my coworkers leave the keys in the ignition or in the car at night.
in my neighborhood, people have broken in houses to get the car keys to lift the cars.

My old neighbor (where I grew up) left his keys in the ignition of his car. This way, they didn't have to break a window or jack up the car to take
it. He had insurance.

Yeah, I am religious about locking shit up. I remember one of my ex's lived in Glenside and her family had an open door policy. I remember me and
her going to her house and the door would be open with no one home and shit. I was like damn it's the suburbs but it's never to nice to lock your
shit up.

aparently, the technique is decade old, but it was kind of forgotten about by locksmith types and only recently rediscovered.

I watched that but without sound. Does it work for pick-resistant locks like Medeco or Mul-T-Lock?

Working overnight witht he Sheriffs Department we travel to some nice neighborhoods and its amazing how many people leave garage doors open. Cars
unlocked and sheds open. And they aren't even asking for an invitation.
I check every door, every night. Even if I know I locked it. You jsut can't fuck around with safety.

In Canada we never lock our doors.
Seriosly though, that makes me really nervous. I got broken into in my old ghetto apartment, and I'm not looking for a repeat.

I've got a hammer by the front door and a hatchet in my nightstand. There's not a person alive who won't run from a guy with a hatchet.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

'spose he comes in the door, he's now got a hammer though. then it's like rock/paper/scissors. i'm guessing hatchet beats hammer though  i keep a bat in my room and a knife in my nightstand. i've been robbed 4 times in my
life, not hoping for number 5. i have this fantasy of catching someone. then tie them to a chair and get really fucking stabby for a day or so. then
dump them on the street. a guy can dream.....

anyone see the new show on Discovery Channel,
its called It Takes A Thief ?
pretty crazy stuff, i just caught part of an episode the other day.
http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/ittakesathief/ittakesathie...

You lock every door and window in your house. But they know every trick in the book. Two expert thieves size up, break into and rip off real homes.
And unless you know how they get in, you don't have a chance of keeping them out.
According to the FBI, in 2003 there were more than 2.1 million reported burglaries in the United States ? that's 740 burglaries per 100,000
inhabitants. The majority of those offenses ? 66 percent ? were residential, with the thief taking away an average $1,600 in goods and cash from a
home like yours.
So how safe is your house?
Enter It Takes a Thief, a unique new Discovery Channel series that offers viewers something they've never seen before: a home burglary performed by
convicted former thieves that is taped as it happens, followed by a lesson in what steps to take to prevent such a violation from occurring again.
Hosted by reformed ex-cons Matt Johnston and Jon Douglas Rainey, It Takes a Thief exposes home-security flaws by unleashing these two uniquely
qualified experts onto the properties of people interested in learning just how vulnerable their houses are, if at all. Watch along with the
homeowners themselves as the burglars size up, break in, and ransack the home in search of valuables. And in so doing, discover what items are
attractive ? and why ? to a burglar.
Then, sit back as our experts give the property a full home-security makeover, reworking everything from locks to landscaping. How foolproof will
these new measures be? Homeowners and viewers alike will find out when Matt and Jon pay an unannounced visit some weeks later to test them. Will they
get in this time?
Find out on It Takes a Thief on Discovery Channel, weekdays at 6 p.m. ET/PT. Because sometimes you have to rob a person blind in order to open their
eyes.
\"thank you very little\"

I keep a bat but I also have a 95 pound boxer/rott mix that shares the bed with me and Mrs. Reed83. I play hockey late at night. He provides plenty
of security while I'm out. This lock shit still freaks me out though.

I grew up half in the country and half in the city where we got broken into all the time. I'm pretty careful about locking up and I have an ADT
system. Being robbed is no fun.

What was it like getting the ADT system installed? Is it expensive? I am thinking of getting one from them or my insurance company.
