No. I know lots of people who own trucks that don't own guns.

Do you live in Austin?
No, I do not. I live in Ellis county.

I suspect that if we had fewer "gun-free zones" we would also have fewer car burglaries that result in a gun being stolen.
I suspect that the majority of the weapons stolen are from people carrying under MPA as opposed to CHL. I base this conclusion on the theory that the number of people carrying under MPA greatly out numbers those carrying under CHL. Reducing the "gun-free zones" would not affect those carrying under MPA.
