These criminals are getting bolder by the day. Now targeting high profile individuals. Women are being targeted as they are soft and easy targets. Less likely to fight back or carry a piece. Stay safe.[/QUOTE]It's like Brazil or South Africa here!
My neighborhood was experiencing some home invasions about 15 years ago (basically one crew working the area), so I fortified the house. Steel door frames, security doors, bullet-proof security storm doors, window pane laminates (3 M makes them), etc. The main thing is to make it impossible to kick a door in; if it takes 2-3 minutes to get into a house, that gives the homeowner (me) time to call the cops and prepare a response (ie. Grabbing a firearm).
You can't make your house home invasion proof, but you really just need to slow the process.
