I often wonder why those that think TV is so safe lock thir doors and windows when they go out and do the same when they park their cars. Many forget that TV has a large percentage of renters and problem children living with their parents. According to the Sheriff giving the talk when we moved here, they commit about 93% of the crime in TV. Heavens yes, there is crime in TV. If you look for it you will find the news stories. If you wear blinders and buy into the slice of heaven safest place on earth thing then you will be oblivious.
Just talk to a Disney ex employee to find out how crime free the happiest place on earth really is. Appearances can be deceiving and if we protect ourselves based only on what dangers befall those we know, we would be vulnerable to all the horrors that befall those we do not know. And that is considerable If I knew where I would need a gun I just would not go there. I also find it amusing when people disparage gun owners or gun carriers due to the actions of a very small minority but would not think to do the same to those who drink alcohol. I am not muh of a drinker and yet have to put up with drunks at the Town Squares whenever I go there at night. Just do not understand the need to drink in our slice of heaven.
I am one of those people who have avoided violence with my gun. Both times while at places I thought were very safe. Too many people buy insurance, install burglar alarms, etc. after the need arises. Not going to do that with my life. Too many are naive as they have not been exposed to crime yet. I know a few of them who went from anti guns to not enough guns.
. As I tell others, I will not complain about your drunk car and cart diving if you do not complain about the gun you do not even know I am carrying. In most cases those who are against guns do not even know how they work or the gun laws that govern their use. Hard to present an educated opinion on that basis.
