You’ve turned the conversation into something else entirely. You think the entire country of 350M lives in fear? Seriously? I get that HN loves to shit on Americans but what exactly is your point here?
My first comment says “many cities see crime” somehow that became “all cities see crime everywhere” in your mind.
- TameAntelope 5y agoI'm American, and I firmly believe that anyone who carries a gun in their daily life is living in abject and completely irrational fear based on a fundamental, tragic innumeracy. And if you think me saying "And no, “cities“ are not one solid, unbroken group" means “all cities see crime everywhere”, you've gotten yourself very lost, friend.
- rank0 5y agoThis describes <1% of Americans. You seem to be lost yourself. What exactly do you disagree with me on from the original comment?
