Recently, there was a pretty serious incident across the street, where a house was broken into while the owners were at home, and the people breaking into the house, expected it to be empty. It was really quite a terrifying incident, and something that I hope never happens again, anywhere. I need to look into florida adt security systems, and how much they cost to get installed, because after what just happened across the street from me, I never really want to be without a security system in my house again.
I know that my wife is going to be traumatized for quite some time, and I do not want to tell my kids the details. However, when the burglars were startled by the owners of the house being there, they opened fire, and killed 3 of the 4 people in the house, before fleeing the seen. I do not understand this sort of senseless crime, but from talking to the police about the incident, they initially opened fire because they were startled, and then continued shooting as to not leave witnesses. However, they did not make it very far before they were apprehended, and I thank God for that.
I think I need to stop talking about this situation, because it is horribly depressing, and the sort of thing that will probably give me nightmares, if I am not careful. I want my house to be protected, and I know that having a security system is not a fool proof way to keep from having something tragic happen, but it is a lot better than being unprotected. If it were legal, then I would get some sort of sci-fi like security system that involved robots and automated turrets, but I know that is not exactly something that is feasible.
