So the frequency of home invasions, per year, per unit of population would be what according to those police logs?

Yikes! I would like to point out though that actual, factual, verifiable reports and 'something you read about' are often wildly different things.

If you live in a neighbourhood that is so crime-ridden, the likelihood that you can afford a gun safe seems low though right? I grew up in some pretty impoverished neighbourhoods (in Canada). This sort of rampant thievery in 'bad neighbourhoods' (at least here) is more a product of Hollywood...

Home invasions were common? Do you have a source for that? A website with crime statistics for your city or neighbourhood?

I would think that's fine right? I would imagine the idea of a gun safe is to keep kids or folks in the home in a desperate situation from quick access to the guns, not to keep what I think some people imagine is some sort of video game troop of commandos from storming their home and stealing...

Canadians, despite being metric, weigh things in pounds and measure height in feet and inches (longer distances are in kilometres though). Even if that weren't the case... I'm pretty sure we don't need math Duck-splained to us! :) Yes, we all know how hard it is to move heavy things. Wasn't...

The casualness of this post is breathtakingly American. Gun safes! And the fact that the average Joe knows their specifications and how hard they are to move. Yowza. Carry on. This post just smacked me upside the head is all.

Barney Miller!

I'm Canadian... the fact that it charted here is probably a big reason why it's lodged itself in my brain!

The theme from SWAT is the shizznit:

This show also paired well with an episode of CHiPs.

I also remember that those guys names were Gage and de Soto.

I still remember the theme music.

I know no one is forcing me to play! I do like RDR2... I might have to make accommodations. Wish I didn't have to though. Like I said, there are certain games where save checkpoints work better than others, where the story is secondary to the gameplay concept of completing 'missions' (Call of...

My aversion to save checkpoints is preventing me from enjoying a couple of games. I installed Mass Effect: Andromeda, which seems like a quite enjoyable game to this point. The inability to save when I want or need to has had me wander back to an old nearly finished Pathfinder: Kingmaker save...

This post reminded me that I had purchased Andromeda at a fire sale price some years ago, but had never installed it. Having just finished Avowed, I thought 'why not'. My review after 20 minutes of playing: I like it! Visuals good, characters I've met are likable, story seems interesting. The...

ME2 was the best of the series and is an all-time classic. ME1 was still really, really, really good and three was well above average. I would say no bums in that lineup.

I downloaded it and just went through it. You're right, it's incredible. Nice work @toucanbuzz !

@Ares64 Just so you know, that was a pretty douchebaggy first post. Didn't make it seem like there were a lot of brains behind the poster. Hopefully you can up your game.

Waltzing in with a fall on your face accidental double post edit is a great way to introduce yourself, King/Queen!
