elflord1973, quote your statistics to the Dr. William Petit who lived in a "nice" neighborhood in Connecticut whose house house was invaded in the night, his wife and 2 daughters raped killed and burned alive. Bad things happen in good neighborhoods. Dr. Petit did not lock his door that night and if he had an alarm system it was not armed. Sure the chances of a tragedy like this are small but please don't compare that to the chances of alien abduction. With my alarm system I sleep soundly at night. Is it 100% foolproof, no but it is way harder for someone to get into my house without me knowing than it would be if i had no alarm system. It takes one second to arm alarm system and does not impact my life at all other than the fact that it gives me greater sense of security. Not using a car to drive my kids would greatly impact my quality of life so of course I am going to use an automobile. That is really a silly comparison.
