4. PROTECT YOURSELF

KEEP YOUR DOORS AND WINDOWS LOCKED. INVEST IN DEADBOLTS.
IF YOU HAVE SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS, MAKE SURE THEY ARE OPERATIONAL AND CANNOT BE MOVED. (LAW ENFORCEMENT IS LEGALLY PROHIBITED FROM MOVING YOUR CAMERAS.)
YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO OPEN YOUR DOORS TO ANYONE. DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR TO STRANGERS.
YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO SPEAK TO ANYONE WHO KNOCKS AT YOUR DOOR.
BEWARE OF PEOPLE ATTEMPTING TO GAIN ACCESS TO YOUR HOME OR LURE YOU OUTSIDE THROUGH FALSE PRETENSE. (RECENTLY, A MAN WAS LURED OUT OF HIS HOME BY AN ICE AGENT WHO CLAIMED TO HAVE HIT HIS CAR AND WANTED TO TALK TO HIM. THE INSTANT HE WALKED OUTSIDE, HE WAS JUMPED AND REMOVED.)
DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO ENTER YOUR HOME. IF THEY START TO BREAK IN, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY.

UNLESS THEY HAVE A WARRANT, THEY HAVE NO LEGAL AUTHORITY OVER YOU.
