    A person should not leave a gun, wallet , or anything of value in a vehicle. Even a locked vehicle is not a safe place for personal belonging. they are too easy to break into, and every one knows about the secret compartments.
    Mrs. Jazreel would always want to leave her purse in the car when we would go places. As we were getting out of the car she would say,” LOCK THE DOORS I AM LEAVING MY PURSE”. Then I would say “WHAT, YOU LEAVING YOUR PURSE”? to which I would get the stink eye and sometimes end up carrying the purse. Of course it was a European man bag that just happened to match her shoes.

    @Paul, I agree! If you’re irresponsible enough (or that ignorant) to leave your gun in your vehicle, and in many cases unlocked, they should spend some time in jail. Or were you referring to the thief’s…..

    prison for all, no deals, no pleas, slam them, maybe they will decide to quit being punk criminals. let them spend at least a year of their young lives in a cage, a time out to reflect…

    Kudo’s to the homeowner for having a security system that allowed for recording of this incident and providing the information to law enforcement.
