Criminals look for easy opportunities.

When I lived in Texas I did not hear about many carjackings or ATM robberies. Heard the odd tale of some little old lady shooting somebody trying to rob her

It is in California. It is impossible to get a concealed carry license here. If you shoot someone, it has to be in your home and you must be in immediate fear for your life. If you shot someone climbing in your 10 year old daughter's window you would very likely do time in California.
