I'm glad I live in a boring part of town...

In recent years our city has been having lots of shoot'em ups. Guys get into an argument at a pickup football game, pull 9mm pistols out of their gym bags and start blazing away. They're lousy marksmen and more likely to hit bystanders than the intended target. Females are getting into the act too. A couple of 18-year-old girls held up some trick-or-treaters at gunpoint on Halloween.

All of this is a great incentive to work hard and buy an expensive home in a good neighborhood where these things are less likely to happen.
