I'm not sure this is the best idea in the world. I was in favour of the other motions and I'm glad this went through, but won't this just encourage criminals to break into cars more and cause more legally purchased guns to end up on the black market? I am just asking. Unattended guns in public places seems like a poor idea to me. It's different in a home where they could be needed for self-defence, and they can be locked up and kept in a safe place. At least, in my mind it is. Thoughts?

How are they gonna know which ones contain a gun? It's functionally no different than guns in a home. Besides, parking areas are almost always more rather than less exposed, and often guarded.

You can buy a gun safe for your vehicle for a moderate price.
