CELEBRITY DEBATES

If you want to know the benefits of home security you should ask NBA stars Antoine Walker of the Minnesota Timber Wolves or Eddie Curry of the New York Knicks.  Both athletes were the victims of home invasion and burglary this past summer in Chicago.  Walker was held at gunpoint in his home while a vehicle, money and jewelry were taken.  Just weeks later Curry was also robbed.  Even worse, Curry while being held at gunpoint with his family and an employee, was restrained with duct tape.  The robbers stole jewelry and cash from Curry’s home.  These situations really sparked debates on celebrities, and the risks involved with being one.  Some players stated that they had considered hiring bodyguards, and many said that they had either purchased home security systems or at least started to use the ones that they already had regularly.  There is no need for a person to have to live their life in fear of being robbed at gunpoint, or even worse.  There is a problem when a player feels the need to have to have protection on their person at all times, often in the form of a firearm.  Especially when players often get in trouble for having guns.
