You're a couple of years behind in your thinking - as a suburbanite outside of a large city we are already well armed in our neighborhood and keeping our doors locked 24/7 whether we are home or not. Over the last 2 years we have had several home invasions, armed robberies, and burglaries - people tied up and duct taped, etc. - thankfully no loss of life over these incidents (yet). This is an upper middle class neighborhood which not so long ago was farm country. Drug addicts need a lot of money to continue their habit. Why would think that they would not go where the money is? Why would they rob their neighbors who are probably just as poor as they are?
