Private Risk Advisor

My college roommate has been adamant for years now that we are on the eve of experiencing widespread lawlessness in major U.S. cities.  His view is that the combined effects of high and chronic unemployment and reductions in local law enforcement will embolden those who are most desperate to target the “haves” in society as easy marks for home invasion, kidnap, extortion, etc. 

He would take little satisfaction in reading this article in The New York Times City Room Section, which details a recent home invasion on East 51^st Street in Manhattan, and includes 19 seconds of actual footage of the event as taken by surveillance video.  While hardly proof of my roommate’s prediction, the article has prompted me to remind others of the need to be extra careful in securing their home and family.
