Hell's Liberal
Why else is it that all the most violent cities are located in states with the strictest gun laws? I've lived and traveled all over the country.
Actually, there was a study done recently that showed that the more guns there are in a state, the more violent crime existed in the state.
I've heard more gunfire in New York, Boston and Oakland, Ca. than I ever did in living in Florida
Remember Sesame Street? One of these things doesn't belong? You're comparing 3 cities with a state. Where'd you live in Florida, a swamp? Heck, since you just heard it, I'm betting 1/2 of it was backfire from cars.
Also, you're not providing any context. I've heard MUCH more gunfire in rural PA than I ever heard in NYC, Washington, Boston, Chicago and Columbus combined. I've spent lots of time in all those cities too. I think I've heard shots once or twice in the cities and been to shooting ranges and near hunting grounds in PA.
