Unfortunatly any system that has a human component has a big flaw.

God bless that girls family and friends as well as the 911 operator who has to live with what happened.

People have home insurance, car insurance, life insurance, health insurance, fire extinguishers, first aid kits, emergency flares, emergency toolkits, cell phones, life alert, etc., but what are YOU gonna do RIGHT NOW if some thug (or more likely, group of thugs) kicks in your door WHILE YOU'RE READING THIS?

Pull the slide and let 3 or 4 .40 hollow point rounds fly in the general direction of their heads! If they are still standing, I'd let go of a couple more to make sure they don't move anymore and grab my other clip to get ready to reload just in case. AFTER that, I'd call 911.

thats why i like the alarm system at my place. you set it and when someone kicks in the door it gives you enough time to rack the gun.
