  1. Very strong supporter of the second amendment, but come on people. 1st, I have no sympathy for people who don’t lock their car doors. 2nd, it should be a crime when you are negligent and leave a firearm in an unlocked vehicle. I just don’t understand. I know people have a delusional belief that PTC is a bubble, but open your eyes. It makes no difference where you live, crime happens every day. Quit making it easy.
