Neighborhood Watch patrolmen in gated communities
should carry an electronic key card that can lock, but not
unlock, any door they notice happens to have been left
unsecured while they make their rounds. Those of us

we sit in the darkened
living
room with a Remington .30-

out of the service.

which are composed of reinforced concrete and the
inside-facing surface of which is coated in steel
plating. |
