my attitude towards gun ownership might admittedly be different if i lived in a high crime area. it might not. i dont know and i'm not moving to find out.

The billionaire, jimmy buffet, suffered a home invasion a while back. I'm pretty sure that he lives in what would be considered a low crime area. Didn't seem to make a difference though.
