If you make your apartment looks occupied while you are away, then you have a chance to decrease a chance of burglary. I have found two products that can potentially work well as burglar deterrents. These are CDs with prerecorded household sounds. You can let the CD play nonstop while you are away. Two sites make similar products: www.DeterrentSounds.com and www.audioguard.com.

I like the last sentence about there not being any word on whether the property owner faces charges. FACE CHARGES? FOR WHAT? Protecting his property, life, and limb. The braiwashing is so deep it is pathetic. One is reminded of someone stopped here awhile back by law enforcement, and the article in the Democrat-Schmat paper casually threw in that a ............gasp ....... I can hardly say it .......... HUNTING KNIFE ,,,,,,,,,, oh my GAWD ! ...... was found in the VEHICLE, when the officer searched it. The mind game of gun control - disarmamnet is played out to the fullest extent right before the dumbed-down eyes of the "public". And to finish the job of CONTROL, this website wants this comment to be "SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL". Nothing like FREE SPEECH in the land of the "FREE" ? ! Here's a little info for all the fools who belive that COMMUNISM "disbanded" .http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2004/12/302870.html **** http://www.dissidentvoice.org/Jan05/Whitney0121.htm ***
