I forgot this is Saturday. Probably the non emergency phones aren't manned on the weekend. I will call Monday and tell you what they say.

Although this video is primarily about Home Invasions it contains some good information about home security measures (locks, alarms and video systems) as well.

It is well worth the seven minutes viewing time. The presenter, Massad Ayoob, has been a highly regarded self defense expert for decades.

It was an excellent video.

I've spent some time studying the topic and still learned a few things from it.

The problem with alarm systems is that the bad guys are in and out in a flash -- well before the cops arrive. Our front doors are not strong because they have side panel(s) that cannot withstand any kind of force. Wrought iron grille work in an entry is probably the only thing they can't break through, however, if they really want to get in, they will go to a window or sliding door.

With an external alarm (which can be heard for blocks)............the bad "boys" may decide not to enter (in an effort of getting maybe $500 of old people stuff).

Very funny, but it would ever work. The spelling and punctuation are too good.
