I think everybody sticks to their position, until they see, their position is faulty or results in a theft of their firearm. Then and only then, do they realize it wasn’t a good idea to leave a gun in their vehicle
So a firearm is the only possession you have that you worry about getting stolen?
When some asshats stole my 300 pound tool box full of Snap-On tools, I was more pissed than when they stole 9 firearms.
I did get my firearms back and the perps locked up. The tools were never seen again.
