Reminds me of a time I sat beside a guy from Manhattan on a plane bound for LA. He had a layover at DFW. I'd say he was about 30 years old, and he said he worked in the garment industry. We talked a bit, and then he asked, "I've heard many people in Texas own guns. Do you actually own any guns?"mojo84 wrote:You are correct. We have a very low crime rate.

Whether there are 20,000 or 60,000 people in my zip, I am glad to see there are 2809 of us that are licensed. Do that mean anything else, I don't know and don't really care.
With that said, we have 10.2% of our residents with an LTC.
If accurate that's really incredible. I bet that your zip has very low crime, too.
"Yes, quite a few as a matter of fact."
"What about handguns? Do you own any handguns?"
"Yes, I've got several."
He was quiet for a bit, then asked, "If you own so many guns, do you have lots of crime where you live?"
"No, we hardly have any at all."
He didn't ask me anything else about guns. And, I didn't care to try to educate someone who had already admitted they didn't own a car and had never been hunting.
