Should I tint my windows?

When I visited the Vancouver area, I stayed in Surrey. I've traveled to over 50 countries, and the only area I've been to where some of the police stations look more like fortresses than they do in Surrey was in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I asked the manager of my hotel why. He said this is due to a myriad of issues, but that many of the issues are related to drugs. I can understand why the above would be on your mind.
