Reply #208: Police departments have won court cases re people expecting to be protected from crime [View All]

And I personally knew five women who were raped in their (locked) homes by strangers who broke in.

I know NO ONE who has had a drunk accidentally stumble into their homes.

Guns in the house for years. No blow out brains. One rape attempt stopped.

Police are the guys who draw the yellow outline around bodies. Courts have said many times that citizens have no legal right to expect police to show up in time to prevent violent crimes. Laws of physics and economics preclude the likelihood of them stopping most crimes. They can't be everywhere and they can't just beam a team to your house if you hear someone breaking in.
