Bolted down - That's the way to go In my work as a burglary detective I can't tell you how many safes have been carried out of homes or businesses lately. I really need to get more serious myself about securing some of our valuables at home.

Please tell me that you've actually seen a gun get up and shoot someone. Personally, I don't think it's possible.

Tell ya what, stare at these for a while and let me know if any one of them moves.
