I sometimes wonder how much cell phone use has cut down on the sort of breaking and entering crime...a criminal cannot disable the landline like in the old days to be sure no one could contact the police. Any one going into a home illegally today has to know that the place is "wired" (as in wireless!) and that there will be 2 or 3 cell phones per house.
You know murders have decreased in Los Angeles to about 300 per year; they used to average about a 1000 per year in the 90s I believe. It seems to me that much more people are getting killed by non-criminals with guns rather than by crimnals with guns. Let's face it when you hear about a murder on the news you either assume it is domestic or gang related. How often is someone shot by a complete stranger?
