Think about it this way: You see someone hauling a large screen TV out
of a window or a door; which one looks more suspicious?
They also give you breathing room when you answer the door, so a criminal
can't rush in when you open the door.

They also reduce the intrusion level of solicitors (like Mormons/Jehovah's
Witnesses/*PIRGS) who blithely ignore a "No Solicitors" sign and bang on
your door anyway.

We put up a "no solicitors" sign because they were waking my nephew from
his naps.

A guy rang anyway and I asked if he read the sign. He told me "I did but
I don't smoke."
