the best advice I can give is always keep a low profile with your stuff, never bump with the windows down (or at all) around your area, get a good alarm, and be aware and ready for these kinds of things, also, if you ever get a shady vibe from someone, never let them know where you live, don't get discouraged, pay the $1000 and get back to work, get an alarm with a back up battery like turnstylez was talking about, and get yourself a mossberg or something and be ready for the a$$holes to make there next attempt, bet they won't come around again after something like that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
