[QUOTE="Singularis, post: 2376135, member: 32412"] SMS is absolutely right on a security system, motion lights, and a dog... it's all about layers of protection. The idea is that the earlier layers get rid of the less serious threats, like the bad guys who are into light property crimes, or a quick and easy B&E. The majority of the time this stuff works, and the criminal isn't going to break in if he thinks someone is home; or if he realizes it, he will split immediately. But of course this doesn't apply to all of them. There are some who will not be deterred by any layer of security short of one that puts big holes in their vital organs... but fighting with them is a last resort, and is dicey at best even for the well-trained. I still think you people are crazy for saying that if she has to fight, she should do it with a bat, a knife, or a can of spray rather than a revolver, for want of training. [/QUOTE]
