And hence why lots of people don’t want to live in dense cities, and then we end up with NIMBYs who want strict housing codes so they don’t have to live near people who set off fireworks.
Living in a city shouldn’t have to mean tolerating lawlessness.
- AngryData 4mo agoPlenty of places people can move without others around. I might feel a bit of empathy for someone living surrounded by farmland and having a city built up around them, but that is incredibly rare and even in that case that only makes their property far more valuable to sell and move to another cheap rural area. If someone moves into an expanding suburb or right on the edge of a city and complains about the city expanding, zero empathy, they should of thought about that when they bought the property.

- AngryData 4mo agoIf you move to a rural area your "neighbors" should be far enough away that they and you won't care if each of you are banging plates of metal together, shooting guns, revving engines, blowing things up, or whatever else.
