[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you live in fear of shootings and DON'T live in an area with gang violence, what you really need is anti-anxiety medication, or a course in statistics[/quote] I don't live in an area with gang violence. In fact, I live in the suburbs of a larger metro area. My family has been one degree of separation from gun violence three times in the last nine years. My son was scheduled to be at a community center an hour after a boy and his grandfather were shot and killed; my son got a frantic text telling him not to come. My daughter's sorority sister was shot and killed by a stray bullet at a popular community event. And my friend's daughter was on lockdown in her suburban high school after a kid brought a gun to school and an administrator and security guard were shot. If you live in this country and aren't afraid of shootings you're not paying attention. [/quote]
