Fran, good comments. It seems Tall Trees is trying to be proactive. Great idea having the local constabulary speak at neighborhood meetings. As you've discovered, though, it's often difficult to get folks to follow thru on stuff when they actually have to volunteer. I like your 3x5 card idea. Likely a hassle to organize and maintain, but well worth it. Having a good relationship and an understanding with a few close neighbors is great, almost mandatory, but it's also nice to have a formal structured program.

Also like BK's idea of the 12 gauge. An armed victim can often turn the tables a bit. http://tinyurl.com/269rhe :hot:


SWR, to some folks, $5300 ain't all that much. Just a cheap Rolex and pizza money. :bow:
