Oh man. I've been noticing this divide for a long time now. Im a sorta-lock person. Im not opposed to locking stuff, but I don't go out of my way for it. I used to lock much less, when I had roomates -- convenience really.  I don't lock up my bike either, when I'm at the coffee shop or bakery or whatever anyway.  My garage is never locked.  I live in a "bad" neighborhood and have yet to be robbed.  Some say it is only a matter of time, but statistically this is unlikely.<p>This area seems to contain the best anecdotal evidence for something like karma too.  Seems those who are most fearful, and super lock everything also get robbed a lot. Those who don't worry about it don't get robbed as often.<p>Anyway I think its funny that the people who are afraid of robberies and "double lock" and "tripple lock" talk about how its "inevitable" they will get robbed, and that it makes "common sense" that the extra locking is required.  Of course if that was so true, the number of "no-locks" reporting 0 robberies would be way fewer.  Seems that there is a huge amount of fear manipulation happening in the lock industry.
