To prevent the possibility of being attacked in your home, leave your fobs at your front door, because they’re breaking into your home to steal your car. They don’t want anything else.
A follow up post retracts the statement and instead suggests the following.
Park vehicles in garage, if possible Ensure your driveway is well lit and keep exterior lights on all night Security cameras are an asset If possible, install a home security system – activate alarm on STAY when home and AWAY when out Consider having a motion detection alarm connected to your cell phone Put security film on glass windows and doors Have multipoint door locks on your doors Keep backyard gates locked and ground windows secured Do not post on social media when you will be away on holiday Report suspicious vehicles/persons in the neighbourhood to police
Defund the police, over and over they are telling us, directly, that this OUR problem not theirs. Put the money into healthcare and public transit.
My father is a cop. We talked about car thefts because it was in the news and he told me they had some federal police come in and give them a lesson on how these car theft rings work. He said nobody at the local station understood it. It was far too technical and convoluted. He said all he knows for sure is that they work in groups and one guy has a laptop. Also, the people who touch the cars are mules who know little to nothing about the group they work for and often get paid in crypto currency. Then he told me nobody at the station knows how crypto currency works.
Police are way behind on crimes involving any sort of technology.
Sounds like the problem is that we keep hiring dumbasses to be cops, they can’t even understand a seminar about their jobs
