Absolutely, NO, it is not an extension of your home and has nothing to do with Castile Doctrine.
I hope you were being sarcastic with that comment.
If not, please read up on the laws.
If you are not inside the car and shoot someone breaking into your car, you will go to jail.

You’re too lazy to hit the lock button on your remote? I bet you’re a real looker

All you do is push a button on your keychain right? I lock my door as I am leaving away from it. I hit a button and the horn blows to let me know its been locked.

Do you live in San Francisco?

If they really want your vehicle, they are going to take it no matter what.

In my 39 years of life, I’ve had my vehicle rummaged through a handful of times with no broken windows and no stolen vehicles. A few missing CD’s maybe, but that’s the worst if it.
Also stupidly left 4 Better Than Ezra concert tickets in a center console as well and had those stolen. But that's on me. Both were from college days.

Lock the doors - if they want to break a window they will
I grew up in the city of NOLA and the idiot crack heads would break the windows even if the doors were unlocked

didn't the AP sheriff say if you don't lock your shite up, you deserve to have it stolen?

Locking your doors is not only about protecting the items inside the vehicle but also having the vehicle stolen dip shite. See how your insurance feels about not locking your doors.

DA Hillar Moore says Louisiana has a statute for justifiable shootings (La. R.S. 14:19) and a statute for justifiable homicides (La. R.S. 14:20).
If a homeowner shoots an intruder during a home invasion and the suspect survives, investigators must prove that the homeowner's use of force was "reasonable and apparently necessary," according to La. R.S. 14:19.
If a homeowner shoots and kills an intruder during a home invasion, investigators must prove the homeowner "reasonably believes that he (or she) is in imminent danger," according to La. R.S. 14:20.
It must also be proven that the action was "necessary" for the homeowner to defend themselves.
In 2006, the Louisiana Legislature enacted "Stand Your Ground" language to the two statutes. In 2014, the Legislature added language that clarified a citizen's protection to "a dwelling, place of business, or motor vehicle."

With those changes to the statutes, there is a "presumption" that the homeowner or someone inside a business or car "held a reasonable belief that the use of deadly force was necessary."
Moore explained that under the Stand Your Ground language, the defender has "no duty to retreat," meaning that someone has the right to defend themselves if they believe they are in danger.
Southern University Law Professor Russell Jones agreed. "If there's a window to escape, a window in which you can avoid the confrontation, you have no obligation to avoid the confrontation or to retreat away. It basically says that you can stand your ground."
Jones added the threat doesn't have to be a real threat, but a perceived threat. He said your home is your castle and the homeowner can use force to protect it or family.
These laws, according to Jones, not only apply to a home, but the car that's sitting in your driveway. "But you have to be present inside of the vehicle. Someone can't be inside of your vehicle... you catch him in your vehicle and then you shoot him," Jones said. "If you're present inside your vehicle and there is a threat and the person refuses to leave the vehicle, then you can use deadly force."

Strong disagree. Recently there have been groups of car thieves all over the country who canvas neighborhoods checking for unlocked cars. They simply walk away from every locked door. The correct message is the exact opposite of your thread. Lock your doors and you are no longer the easy target.
This... live in a nicer gated neighborhood so we have thieves that come in looking for easy grabs. Most people catch the crew on their ring cameras jiggling doors...if it's unlocked, they go to town, locked they move on. These guys aren't gonna smash a window in the middle of a neighborhood.

I have worked in downtown STL, Chicago,Columbus, and Toronto over the years I learned never keep a damn thing in your car and never lock your doors.

You stated that a car is not an extension of your home and that Castle Doctrine is not relevant to motor vehicles. You’re wrong on both accounts. However you are correct about having to be in the car

I have seen plenty of bad takes on this board. Had a few myself. This is probably one of the worst, though.
