I've had two break-ins (pre-empeg), and both made me feel humiliated and violated.

Yeah, I had my car broken into a few years after I got out of high school. Fortunately, I had a Kenwood pullout at the time that I had taken inside for the night (I never normally did this, just lucky timing). However they did get my Amplifiers and EQ. The feeling I had was as close as I can imagine to what a woman feels after being raped, not good at all. That feeling lingered for quite a while as I remember it. It turned out that the culprit was one of my younger brother's freinds (he got what was coming to him, if you know what I mean), but I never recovered my goods :-(.
