Socks · 02-19-2003, 02:53 PM

You guys just don't try enough home invasions

pink_in_the_middle · 02-19-2003, 02:54 PM

We do.

Martin · 02-19-2003, 02:56 PM

Some people do. I do..

I wouldn't if I lived in the hood...

Yo Adrian · 02-19-2003, 02:58 PM

What's considered the hood in Canada? Where are the ghettos?

Pipecrew · 02-19-2003, 02:58 PM

we do, but then again my neighbor is a detective and leaves his unmarked car out all night

gigi · 02-19-2003, 03:15 PM

I used to.....until I moved to Kamloops and I woke up at 2am to some punk 16 year old drunk kid standing in my doorway looking for some x-g/f he had.....scared the shit out of me....

I lock my doors now.

L0stMind · 02-19-2003, 03:25 PM

gigi - that dont sound good at all!

I told you kamploops was full of crazy people!

SleazyDream · 02-19-2003, 03:27 PM

we do. Skufty my pet polar bear pretty much eats any strangers that he doesn't know that come around my yard.

sherie · 02-19-2003, 03:32 PM

Only in error!! I wouldn't consiously leave it unlocked!

ZoiNk · 02-19-2003, 03:40 PM

I personally lock my doors, but the majority of people I know don't normially, except at nite. During the day the majority of people I know have their doors unlocked.

bauhaus · 02-19-2003, 03:56 PM

never left the doors unlocked
but I live downtown....there are freaks like elvismanson cruising around..... no real hoods in toronto though.

Nothing that is really scary to walk around in at least

pine · 02-19-2003, 04:09 PM

I did. All my shit got stolen. By Americans.

Ever been to Jane & Finch? Regent's Park? St Jamestown? Parkdale? Lots of bad areas in T.O. Don't kid yourself.

I live at King and Peter and with all the drunked up college kids stumbling around I wouldn't consider leaving my doors open...some drunk like bathhouse might steal my tv.

Well I did until last weekend when I got my notebook and
camera ripped off... (in Toronto)

My office in London Ontario, I leave unlocked when I step
out for a beer. It's in a slightly better neighbourhood than
where I live in Toronto.

stanton · 02-19-2003, 04:22 PM

yes i do

stanton · 02-19-2003, 04:23 PM

have you ever had hungry, rabid gophers gnawing at your ankles?

anyone who can get to the door deserves what they get inside

which by the way is a house well-stocked with angry, Stephen Takacs trained pedes

Platinum Becky · 02-19-2003, 04:29 PM

I would never leave my doors unlocked....
I used to live right down the road from Regent Park..(Gerrard and Sherborne) and there was this stinky bum that used to sleep in my stairwell..and sometimes he would knock for hours(mind you he was PISSED drunk).

Sometimes in the morning on my way to work I would give him a muffin or some orange juice.

Regarding ghetto or no ghetto in Canada..I would have to say that the streets of Vancouver (Hastings especially) are nuts....as far as Toronto goes, we do have some 'bad' areas, but nothing that a street smart person could not handle...and our ghettos dont go on for 100 blocks like they do in NY City for example.

I think we live in a pretty safe place..no worry of being killed by leaving the door unlocked...just dont want creepy strangers in our houses

I live at the borderline of HighPark/Parkdale, and you know what? It is not that bad!! I can walk home from the Bovine if I chose to and not worry about anything....And I also live in an area where I wouldn't worry too much about leaving my door unlocked, I leave my windows open all the time, not to worried about it

SilverTab · 02-19-2003, 04:31 PM

Depends on what you mean....In the day, yeah of course I don't lock my doors...at night tough...even tough we're in Canada, there's thieves and burglars in every country I guess!!....

BTW just saw the movie yesterday....I tought it was a kick ass documentary.... Can you believe they give guns in a bank when you open an account? fuckin unbelievable!

Yep I agree Hun

That is exactly what I am saying

Dveron · 02-19-2003, 04:39 PM

During the day I do and when I go do laundry or jet to the shop round the block but you basically can't do dick in my apartment block without a specific keycard and the elevator will only go to the floor the apartment is on plus 24hr concierge watching everybody

Aly-Python · 02-19-2003, 04:40 PM

I used to leave my car unlocked outside my house in Toronto, but only because they buggered-up the door breaking into it EVERY NIGHT!

Fuck -- you walk home from the Bovine?! That's far!

Next time you can share a cab with me if ya want!

Nysus · 02-19-2003, 05:29 PM

It's pretty stupid if you don't lock your door. 80% of thieves will move on to the next house if the door is locked...

I lock my door... Plus I have my dog, so she'd scare the shit out of anyone she doesn't know..

Cheers,
Matt
