kw5kw,
I don't think one needs to be a victim of crime to believe firmly in fighting it.
Many of us here aren't crime victims, nor are we related to them. However, we resent being targeted, and we choose to protect ourselves.

You're right, however, in that the antis will not change their perspective until they have to deal with crime either personally or through a loved one.

We used to live in that area. WAAAAYYYYYYYYYY to crowded. And the crime was starting to get bad when we left five or six years ago, you just didn't hear about it.
There's a lot of random crime out there too.
