Constantly see people online talk about "when the robber comes thru my door" or whatever, and some of it is memes, but a lot of it is just people legit discussing what the "best weapon" to fight robbers breaking into your house at night would be - Giving it so much thought as if it is a legitimate concern. So is it? Does it happen a lot?

We ate absolutely terrified of an unknown black or brown person sitting in their car or walking through our neighborhood. Idk if they limit what you can view but you should check out nextdoor.com for some insight into the insanity.

Meanwhile I've left the door unlocked every place I've lived with only one exception.
