I would like the details of the robery (my email is on file). Knowledge is power. Please someone.
I too am worried about the increasing problems. Many years ago locals would warn you who to stay away from. Now they keep their ears open but their mouths closed.

In simplier times, when one kept candles and water because the current or water would experience a lock-out often enough, the trick to learn involved poking a stick or fishing pole through a window at night while the guest was sleeping and drag their pants to the window to liberate the wallet. I still clip my fanny pack around the bed leg to prevent this.
But guns raise the bar. Why do I get the impression that the police are both overwhelmed and ineffective? Maybe the "borrow and spend" policies do not allow enough $ for important things.
