Locking your truck does not make it safe, even an in-experienced person can be in and out of there before you could react to an alarm.

As for the people who leave them loaded in there house it is no diffent and is still not safe. A gun, even unloaded, should only be accessable to you at all times. So in the courts eyes if a civil lawsuit was filed yes you can still be found as negligent.

I am really not trying to be a dick, just hoping you will be a little more carefull next time and that they find whoever did this before anything bad can happen.
Point taken.
