this topic which I apparently launched was definitely not intended to "scare" anyone. It was to prepare them.

Fair enough then.

there are still people in this world who are true gypsies---real crooks-by-virtue-of-inherited-genes. They apparently sneak in and out of towns all over the country before anyone knows who or what ripped them off.

I do not deny that, indeed one of the reason I got fed up living in a city was the increased crime (at all levels) and the increased mentality that cities, municipalities and government at large owe people "something"... So, I finally said to myself .... screw it, let these bastards choke in their own sewage, I am out of this scene...

I am not sorry I did so, and today, I cannot see myself going back to the city... perhaps a casual visit, since there are certain things that I do miss from the city...

as for "being a crook" by virtue of inherited genes... sorry, I do not believe in the thug-by-gene stuff...

Everyone has a choice, no question that the environment you live and/or are brought up, plays a part, but you still have a choice... and you the individual, makes it... saying you are a thief by genes and cannot help yourself is as ludicrous as the smokers suing the cigarette companies... it is absurd.... (and I am a non smoker)
