Unless time travel is involved.
Tell that to George Taylor.
Take your stinking paws off me.
Hunh Bruh?

We never locked our house or vehicle doors in the country when I was very young but that was decades before you were born.
Have a nice day.
I was hasty in my comment, and out of line to you. I should have given that more thought before posting, and tempered my reply.
Well I do know of areas where it doesn't happen at all, rural areas in other states. Small town USA without a "diverse" population/culture.
super rural southern ohio it happens. they stop on the road and walk upthe driveways. ransac cars, sheds and carports.
I was just in Gray, TN a few weeks ago for a week and loved the area! Johnson City was fun too, but I spent more time in Gray. I can definitely see why people wouldn't mind leaving things unlocked there...In Gray TN, I personally know people who don't lock their house when they leave day in and day out. And they leave their keys in their vehicles when they park. Ditto in Jonesborough TN. So while you may have traveled around the world fighting crime, you have not lived nor worked in every town in the USA. To make such broad assumptions shows ignorance.
Yes, there may be crime, but its not near the levels of large metropolitan cities. Not even close.
My girlfriend's apartment has cars broken into almost nightly, it seems, and she doesn't live too far from LSU on a rather decent side of town. Some people have even had their apartment doors tested at night while they are home. Criminals are getting braver as consequences are getting lessened.

They had yet another report on the news on Fox last night (channel 8 in New Orleans) somebody was attempting to break into a woman's house and she called 911. The perps broke into her house and stole her car. The NOPD responded 17 hours later! And she called multiple times.

I live in Kenner My doors are locked! The windows have roll down shutters on them, and help is just seconds away.
LaPlace is Lil Orleans so not suprised
Austin, its like you are on a different planet up there in NE TN compared to down here. Johnson City is a college town, sort of like Hammond minus a couple huge negatives. And the rolling hills and country side
