Net Panic
#4
I chuckle. Just a few nights ago some idiot outside our apartment building on the front side fired off a few rounds. Then, for good measure, they did it again a few minutes later. From the sound of it, I surmise it was at least a 9mm, if not something more powerful. By the time we could arise and peek out the window blinds, we saw only a couple of guys casually standing out there smoking on the sidewalk. A few minutes later, they were gone. The police came and investigated the scene. Apparently they fired into the air or ground, but no property of value was struck, and no bodies or even blood. These were visitors, not residents.

You have to know your area. Most of my neighbors know I'm an ex-Military Policeman and that I'm armed. They act like they trust me, and even defend me behind my back. The Lord wants us to stay here for now. This is an Open Carry state, so it's not the guns, but how they are used that becomes an issue. Still, there are plenty of places where it's just preposterous to own guns, asking for serious trouble. I think Jay's comment was aimed at how the fellow in the article expressed himself. The writer seemed wholly unconscious of the variations in context for his readers.
