I don't know what can be done, but since i have been here, right outside of the Ocala area of florida, the news has reported several murders, one right after the other, in just this region...news comes from Orlando, who are people that have lost their jobs..., many bank robberies as well....all unemployed people...losing their minds!!!!!!!!!
It's scary as can be down here....I would much rather live in a rural area than deal with this crap...though my parents area is safe, (so we hope it stays that way) the surrounding areas is a crap shoot of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
People packed in to sardine cans ready to burst could be part of it as well...and guns in that type of situation in my humble opinion has been not so good.
Not one of these murders were stopped by the good people that hold guns as some people proclaim it would.
I am not certain the gun ownership itself is causing this because where I live, everyone owns a gun or two or three, yet Maine still ranks 48th or 49th in crime, out of all states.
try living 40 miles from S.Central LA......wonderful part of the south land....
