Because "Amber Lamps" has worked almost continuously for over 30 years. Sometimes three jobs at once...

If you believe that is a possible issue why would you want until it happens before you act?

You live in Section 8 man, its time for a fucking shotgun.

It's not borderline criminal, it's socialist.

I suggest you do three things, in order:
1. Get a storage unit for the bikes.
2. Buy a shotgun. Something in a 12Ga with an 18" barrel.
3. Move.

You could do a Discovery documentary on them. Live in their tribe. Lean their language. Mate with their women.

There is a chance that you might want to stay with them or become to lazy to get away from them.

1. I have a good cable lock on the bike and an alarm, but I am considering keeping my bike at work.

2. I have a 12Ga shot gun already but I appreciate the thought!

3. Already working on it. I may take your first suggestion and get a storage unit but for my stuff, camp with the gf at her place until her lease is up and then move somewhere with her.

My biggest problem will be what to do with the dog! If it weren't for him, I'd already be gone.

Unless you have full coverage & are ready to 'trade-in', I'd definitely stash the bike elsewhere - especially w/ all the chop-shopable goodies on it. Cable lock/alarm won't do didley if it gets chucked into a mini-van in about 9 seconds flat. When I lived near Charlotte, it was a given that a bike wouldn't last any time in an apt complex anywhere near the rougher areas (based on hearing many theft reports on the local forum over the years), and picking them up/throwing them in a p/u or van seems to be the preferred method.

That's a f'd-up situation, but at least you're month-to-month & have an exit strategy - good luck!
