[NBLUG/talk] theft deterrent / security system

[Allan Cecil]

All of the above (fake cameras, a chain and dog bowl, a deer trail camera, etc.) and a Model A Pi with a soler panel connected to a gun firing blanks to scare the heck out of anyone dumb enough to keep walking onto the property?

"So lame, everyone knows those cameras don't do anything.  Oh look, a deer camera, I'll take that with me."... BOOM! "I'm outta here!"

It plays out better in my head.  :)
