First, I really like your comment because it is honest and highlights how different Urban and Rural issues are. Lots of guns in the hands of non-law enforcement people is scary in a big city and most of the reasons are really good (i.e. accidents, crime, etc). In the country, not owning a gun is scary because of the inability of law enforcement to respond quickly when called... even suburbs often have slow police compared to dense urban areas.
- dragonsky67 6y agoI'm from Australia so am missing your context. Is violent crime such a high risk for you that the proximity of law enforcement is a factor, or are you talking about using law enforcemnet to deal with dangerous animials? My experience here and having travelled much of this country is that I've never felt at risk of violent crime whilst in remote areas and rairly in urban areas when in an area near a pub or "drug" area.
