People in Atlanta have left their car doors unlocked for years, for the same reason.

I empty my work truck every night and leave the cases open sad but you do what you gotta do

Mary was walking down a dark alley late at night, when suddenly a big man jumped out of the shadows and started tearing her clothes off. She wasn’t worried. She knew she’d left her money at home.

next, they’ll be leaving the doors and windows of their homes open, and walking around with their pockets turned inside out. Submit to the Media-Dem Party’s footsoldiers of domination and destruction.

My personal preference is the South African anti-carjacking technology...

Wait until you find a bum sleeping in your trunk with a warming fire going and the city won’t do anything about it.

Maybe new sign:
Breaking laser beam to put hands in trunk will set off explosives. Not responsible for bodily injury.

When I was a child (early 1950s) my father would leave his convertible doors unlocked after punks’ knife slashing of canvas tops to get at items on seat.

In high school, one of my classmates came to class late because a homeless man was sleeping in her backseat and peed in it while he was sleeping.

I’ve also read on independent media that Qanon folks
have been using the open trunks as housing and also
engaging in less-than-appropriate behaviors with
local dogs, monkeys and handicapped persons.

By and large, a bunch of pussies live in CA. People should organize neighborhood patrols and take out anyone committing crimes. The government certainly isn’t doing their job.

Funny but if you tried that the cops would make sure you go to prison. The govt doesn’t want competition.
