Believe it or not, I agree with you 100%.
I’m a staunch supporter of gun rights and the right to self defense. Also, I support vigilantism for the reasons you’ve mentioned above. IMHO, it’s a sick society that supports a criminal’s rights over a victim’s rights.
A good example of this “sickness” in our society: one of the links above regarding the Chula Vista crimes has the police spokesperson mention that it’s the victim’s fault for the car thefts and break-ins! He said that if we want to prevent these crimes, people have to start “being smart” and keeping things (and themselves) locked up so there wouldn’t be any incentive for the criminals to act. Sounds an awful lot like “blaming the victim” in rape cases. It’s disgusting. How about we lock up the criminals instead of “locking up” innocent people who have to live behind bars and locks on their houses? It sounds like they are encouraging letting the criminals, rather than law-abiding citizens, run the streets.[/quote]
Funny that I brought this up and found two articles today where the victim of a crime was treated by the “law enforcement” as a criminal.

I would like to get back on topic with the alarm subject but this has taken an interesting twist IMHO.
