exactly!! that masked man is still gonna commit the crime regardless of adding 5 cops or eliminating 5 cops. i mean, how often do cops show up while the crime is still in progress? you're not any more or less safe.Police dont prevent crimes they only report them, rarely if ever are they at a scene to prevent them.
besides, you can always get a brinks home security system. that way when the guy kicks in your door, he runs away as soon as the alarm goes off.
i saw it on the tee vee, so it must be true.
