Ok so I move to Tulsa, OK for a flying job, on my second day there, in the middle of the night, someone smashes the window on my truck, tore up the dash, and stole my Radio-XM-GPS unit. $2,000 USD worth in damages. This just makes me sick to my stomach. It seems like everyone I talk down here had a break-in at one time or another. I dont even lock my doors in Wyoming (house or vehicle) and I hardly ever hear of crime. Here in OK people locks their house door when they are INSIDE!

I wonder if its because of the lack of guns in OK, Wyoming has a very high rate of people who carry concealed weapons. you wont ever see someone here getting away with shootings in WY because they would be shot down in an instant.

Criminals are less likely to rob someone or commit a burglary in Texas or Florida where they have the "Castle Law" and "Conceal Carry" laws on the books.
