Nothing good happens after 11 p.m. People really do have a choice, lock it up or lose it!

Please, someone offer classes for folks on rudimentary home security! Lock the doors, lock your car, don't leave purses, ipads, computers, whatever in your car, locked or unlocked, secure sliding glass doors. If you don't know how to do these things, contact a local locksmith or the police, for heaven's sake. It costs the city, the county, whoever, hundreds of dollars in police time to clean up after your carelessness. There should probably be a fee for doing that where these things could have easily been prevented. Smarten up!! You aren't in Kansas any more.

Locks work great when used.
