Yep. I only have one friend and his name is Sig P226. He likes his 20 round magazine loaded with hollow points with him at all times.
Even the best of locks obviously won't keep some of the lunatics out there from breaking in to your house.
And that's when my friend 'Sig' gets really mad.
Of course, when nobody is home that's a different story. But again, if someone *really* wants to break in, they can and will.

What does your friend "Sig" do to protect your belongings when you aren't home? Point and click defense only works when you're physically present to point and click.

Quite true. My friend Sig is pretty useless when I'm not home. (Like I mentioned)

And really, the fanciest locks in the world might make you feel a little better, but the old tried and true 'forced entry' will generally work.
Sort of like the ol' "If you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns" thing. Good locks will probably only keep the more honest thieves out.
On second thought, never mind. Not so sure there is such a thing as an "honest thief". (Not to mention that was a pretty poor analogy).

Rather than "honest," substitute "careful."
