It may be a little silly for some citizen living in the suburbs, but I think some neighborhoods, like mine, could use an armor car. As a matter of fact, during the last two weeks of December, there were at least two carjacking happened in my town.
We may want to also pull back and look at the big (global) picture here.
Iraq, is the first place that comes to mind here in the US. Former Iraqi intelligence are now using all the data gather on well-to-do Iraqis and have organized operation of kidnapping and demanding random for very specific amoung of money and assets. What about all the kidnappings and carjacking in South America, Russia, and Africa?
Hiring more police doesn't necessary mean more protection. They can't be everywhere. When things go bad, it's better to be able to protect yourself first (Clarification: DEFENSIVELY, like a safe-house/panic-room, NOT offensively, like shoot them before they shoot you, OK!?!).
