Sometimes you must leave your weapon in your car if you want to follow local and federal regulations. Lighten up.

Um...not to be a dick...but all federal buildings and buildings in which guns are not permitted (the library for example) in AZ that I have been in provide some form of gun locker or storage options for those who choose to carry. So your point is not valid. Arizona has a very different wild-wild-west-style gun culture then the rest of the country, it seems, so you two might be comparing apples and oranges.
I don't think you were in the wrong for leaving your gun in the car, but that doesn't mean you should encourage others to do the same. There is no great crime comitted on your part...you're not 'arming the criminal element'...anyone who can steal a car can get a gun if they want one.
IMHO, it just sucks you lost your gun.
