Burgled
no matter what the government data says, or what comes out of the mouth of the wall street economists, one thing i’ve noticed recently has been an increase in petty crimes.
in the past month alone:
- my roomates GPS and phone were stolen from his car, the front passenger window was smashed in.
- my friend’s apartment was broken into and they were burgularized, everthing was overturned and valuables were stolen
- another friend’s car was broken into in SF’s japan town and his latop was stolen
- someone attempted to break into my friend’s gf’s car and broke the pick in the door handle
are we headed for more dire straits? based on the perceived increase in crimes, it seems like the recession is just beginning.
time to deposit your money in your mattress, buy rations, build a panic room, and load up on ammo.
haha kidding aside, it wouldn’t hurt to purchase $12 renter’s insurance. i turned locked my GPS and set my “safety location” so that in the event that my GPS is stolen, they won’t know where my house is.
be safe out there.
