Right, that was the point. Guns, iPods, laptops, cameras, cell phones,

one knows for sure, well ... ------------------------------ Message: 3

This is much preferable to having people break-in while you are at home,
so I'd call it a successful deterrence unless it was somehow
established that the marginal desire to steal the gun motivated the
decision to break in at all.
