I don't think it's in dispute that NW serves a purpose. Obviously any increase of presence will deter borderline criminals. Physical force (a dog that can stop an intruder is one example) will help with those that are not borderline. The simple fact is that in a rural location police will just be there in time to file a report of what they took. It's a persons own responsibility to protect their property.
