SilentStrikerIs it safe to leave front door unlocked at night in the US?
DagwoodIIIFirst, the USA is a giant country. It takes about four hours to drive from New York to Philadelphia and two weeks to drive from New York to Los Angeles.
Second, crime can vary wildly in the same city.
makingStuffForFunI believe Trumptopia is about the same size physically as Australia.
Same thing.
Big city. Lock.
Small town. Maybe lock.
Rural area. Never lock.

You know, you could get a ‘search engine’ like AskJeeves or Bing and then you’d know for sure.
USA 9.83 square km
Aus 7.69 square km.
Pretty close then. Interesting. Thanks for the stats.
leojWe’re kind of getting away from the point that how long it takes to drive somewhere has zero to do with whether you lock your door.
the drive time was to illustrate scale.
While it doesn’t matter how big a whale is vs a microbe, you can’t put a whale under a normal microscope, thus the distinction is relevant.
oh I might disagree believe leaving doors unlocked is more common when the nearest neighbor is a mile and a half away but maybe I’m wrong
Yeah nah cunt. You don’t include Alaska in that as it’s pulling a lot of weight.
Contiguous US is 8.08. Still slightly larger than Australia but only byy a dick hair.
This is the most Australian argument I’ve read, I even read it in my best Australian accent.
Some of my inspiration for my internal Australian accent include:
“Fosters, Australian for beer!”
“That’s not a knife, THIS is knife!”
“I’m dry as a dead dingo’s donger”
Fun fact: if by some miracle you find Fosters anywhere Australia, if you actually buy it and drink it, you get instantly deported to Manus Island because you’re clearly not from around here. Or worse, a pome.
The US is significantly larger than Australia and has ten times the population.
It’s not significantly larger. Lots of people though.
20% larger is significant.
Is it though?
Significantly?
Hhmmmm
