- alistairSH 2y agoThe vast majority of the US is not like this. Yes, there are some (generally poor, urban) areas with crime problems. The average middle class town or suburb? Walking to school would be safe, if we simply built sidewalks instead of 6 lane highways.
- Aurornis 2y agoThe majority of the US is absolutely not like this. You keep accusing other people of living in a bubble, but you're indexing your entire experience on to anecdotes of where you grew up as an individual experience.
- lvl155 2y agoI lived all over this country. Inner cities to rural areas. North to South. East to West. Do you even have kids? And why are you targeting me on here?
- bilbo0s 2y agoIn all honesty, statistically, that person's assertions are highly likely not to be fact. It's like the man who has happened on "several" three-alarm fires in his life. How many times does a person happen on even one three-alarm fire in a lifetime? Let alone "several". The likelihood you're either speaking to an arsonist or a liar is very high. Same is true for people who are robbed at gunpoint "several" times. The statistical likelihood that you're either speaking to a criminal or a liar is extremely high.
- rawgabbit 2y agoHmm. I don't know the race of the poster you are referring to. I do know from friends who were not White, their experience living in the South was vastly different from mine.
- vidarh 2y agoI got that it's the US. My statement stands.
