♦ If you are still living in Salisbury, keep valuables in your home and have a job, you ought to consider renting an armed security guard to keep tabs on your abode for when you are out. Make sure your house is made of brick or solid stone, and has steel reinforced doorframe and a steel deadbolt. Above all have a firearm with knockdown power. If your home is constructed of lightweight and flammable materials, invest in all steel siding. The city’s massive numbers of repeat felons will bring it to your address when the big roulette wheel in the sky lands on you and your family. Good luck amigo. Remember some settlers survived in Apache territory. Give that 4-leaf clover a big squeeze. Or better yet start sizing up a reputable moving van company.
