It depends on where one lives here in the good ol usa
my house hardly ever gets locked - I never lock my car
Out front theirs a stocked tool box,four wheeler, boat etc.
sitting out front
I never worry about anything getting stolen
But 60 miles southwest of me is shreveport,la
you better lock ALL your shit up or it aint gonna be there the mornin
and yes theres alot of people that carry guns around here
including myself. In my 35years I have never fired a gun at another person nor do I know of anyone that has.
BUT if some ass wipe feels lucky one night and crawls in my house
he's a dead motherfucker - and I can shoot him legally, as long as he's "in my house" - can't shoot him in the yard
Do I feel safe here - yes very much so
