A frustrating thing is that it's completely optional to live in a society where this is a problem. We know how to stop this from happening. There are places where you just don't have to live in fear of some low-life breaking your window, and we have the technical ability to replicate those conditions in any moderately-wealthy country, if we aren't prevented from doing so.
