We have been talking about prisons, prisoners, rehabilitation, prosecution, etc.......in one of our other threads.

Now, let's put a new twist on the subject of crime. How many of you have been a victim of a crime?

In the last 15 years, we have had our house broken in to twice. Both times, we were hit very hard. It was almost to the point that we didn't want to replace the TV/VCR, microwave, etc....because we figured if we bought them, they would come back and steal them too. We took our time replacing items. After the second break in, we had a security system installed. No problems since.

About 8 years ago, we had our car stolen out of our driveway......they recovered it, and it was still intact...without a steering column. Guess what they stole out of our car? Our spare tire, baby car seat, floor mats, and my wife's Bible.

Since then, we have been very careful and very safety conscious.
