There is tons of information out there on home invasion and police response times. Check this one out: What REALLY Happens When Your Burglar Alarm Goes Off HINT: The Police Are Between 1 and 4 Hours Away http://www.kickproofdoor.com/images/happens.pdf This report examines the one element of using a burglar alarm that everyone mistakenly takes for granted — the expectation the police will immediately respond to your burglar alarm when they are contacted by your alarm monitoring service. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth. http://www.city-data.com/forum/houston/1270009-police-response-time-home-alarms-robberies.html

Rapist demonstrates for gun control Gun Control Activist Protesting How Easy it is to Buy Guns, is a Rapist January 30, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield Jerome McCorry organized a protest against a gun show, claiming that the gun show made it too easy to buy guns. Why did that worry him? Perhaps because because the easy availability of guns might have made his career as a rapist more dangerous. (via Instapundit) [iframe style="POSITION: absolute; TOP: 0px; LEFT: 0px" id=aswift_0 height=250 marginHeight=0 frameBorder=0 width=300 allowTransparency name=aswift_0 marginWidth=0 scrolling=no][/iframe] Outside of Bill Goodman’s Gun and Knife Show, people were protesting the sale of assault weapons. Those are the guns which the proposed bill would ban inside Hara Arena. “We know that guns are being sold on the floor inside Hara Arena illegally” said Jerome McCorry. “No background checks no identification of any kind.” McCorry said “AK-47s and M16s are not gonna be used for hunting, they’re not going to be used to protect anybody. These are the weapons that are coming back and being used in mass murders and mass killings.” And Jerome is an expert on what kind of guns can be used to protect someone, since he is the kind of guy that people buy guns to protect against. But according to him, you don’t need an AK-47 or M16 to stop him from raping you. It’s just overkill. When Jerome bursts into your bedroom, you don’t need that much firepower, says the guy bursting into your bedroom. Senator Feinstein needs to bring Jerome down to D.C. as an expert witness so he can testify on just how much firepower a woman needs to defend herself from him. And maybe Piers Morgan can have him on too. Jerome McCorry is so passionate about keeping guns out of the hands of people who might shoot him that he spends a lot of time working on anti-gun activism. The Dayton Daily News has also given McCorry legitimacy, covering a “hoodie rally” sponsored by McCorry and The Adam Project in the wake of the death of Trayvon Martin in Florida, after the 17 year-old allegedly attacked neighborhood watch volunteer and concealed weapons permit-holder George Zimmerman. [iframe style="POSITION: absolute; TOP: 0px; LEFT: 0px" id=aswift_1 height=250 marginHeight=0 frameBorder=0 width=300 allowTransparency name=aswift_1 marginWidth=0 scrolling=no][/iframe] You can see how McCorry and Obama’s Favorite Son have things in common. When WHIO was contacted about McCorry’s rape problem, they responded that they knew he had a “controversial past” but these days he’s “voicing a message of community harmony through non-violence.” Peace, love and rape. http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/gun-control-activist-protesting-how-easy-it-is-to-buy-guns-is-a-rapist/ From the Attorney General's ICrimeWatch.net: JEROME NMN McCORRY Registration #: 32198 Aliases: Jerome Jordan Physical Description • Age: 62 (DOB: 02/11/1950) • Height: 6'01'' • Sex: M • Weight: 280lbs • Race: Afr Amer • Eyes: Brown • Hair: Black • Scars/Tattoos: Scar on abdomen (right side) Address 1426 HOME AVE DAYTON, OH 45402-8203 Offenses • Description: 2907.02 - Rape • Date Convicted: • Conviction State: Ohio • Date Released: • Details: (Pre AWA) Sexually Oriented Offender As can be seen in the WHIO-TV video, Anti-Gun-Protestor Jerome McCorry is wearing a jacket and identified in the on-screen graphic as the President of The Adam Project. The Adam Project's website lists its address as 1426 Home Ave., Dayton - the same address as Rapist-and-Convicted-Felon Jerome McCorry. Jerome McCorry as he appeared on WHIO calling for gun control Jerome McCorry as he appears in the Sex Offender Registry In short, "Anti-Gun-Protestor Jerome McCorry" and "Rapist-and-Convicted-Felon Jerome McCorry" are one and the same person, and WHIO-TV and The Dayton Daily News have been treating this man as a legitimate voice of reason that should be considered in the debate over whether or not rape and other crime victims should be able to buy firearms in order to protect themselves from attack. What's even worse, this isn't the first time. A search of the WHIO-TV website shows Jerome McCorry appearing in other articles advocating gun control over the past few years, and one article about an incident in which an Adam Project-sponsored rally turned violent. The Dayton Daily News has also given McCorry legitimacy, covering a "hoodie rally" sponsored by McCorry and The Adam Project in the wake of the death of Trayvon Martin in Florida, after the 17 year-old allegedly attacked neighborhood watch volunteer and concealed weapons permit-holder George Zimmerman. *Not one of the articles by WHIO-TV or The Dayton Daily News* mentions McCorry's status as a convicted rapist who is on the sex offender registry.** Hmmmm........Can anyone think of a reason why this man doesn't want law-abiding citizens to have the ability to defend themselves with firearms? http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/node/8759
