Burleson cops try to get homeowners to close their garage doors
And, no, we're not speaking euphemistically.

While this image does not in fact depict a Burleson police officer hard at work, it does demonstrate that even the Pres needs the occasional reminder about keeping his garage door closed.
Folks in Burleson (judging by the lady interviewed) aren't too worried about having stuff taken from their open garages. But that's going to change, if the Burleson PD have anything to say about it. (And, of course, they do.)
With burglary incidents on the rise, they've been putting hang tags on residence front doors for about a year now suggesting that folks close their garages. Now, to reinforce the suggested strategy, they'll actually be knocking on those doors to alert homeowners to their domestic dishabille.
Remember what BOC says in Career of Evil? "I choose to steal what you choose to show."
So: don't show.
