How did you manage to spout all that without answering my question?

Just exactly what was the mental process that resulted in such a complete dodge of the question I asked?

Sorry, I thought it was rhetorical. You said you would leave your home to the vices of a criminal v. staying and defending ... because you would have to spend 20K+ if you did. That's the gist, right?

Hence my interpretation that you wanted better laws to protect you in such events. I'll assume you don't like to run outside in the middle of winter in your shorts.

If not, why wouldn't you support such laws?

You really need to go back and re-read that post of mine. All you're doing is confirming that you drew a conclusion not even suggested by what I wrote.
