Why is one circle around only a blue low incidence of gun fire north of north park hill?
Here is the gun fire heat map for Denver. I live close to one of the circles. I hear gun fire probably every couple of months. As you can easily predict, the gunfire locations closely correlate with minority neighborhoods, which is why gunfire sound technology is controversial
You don’t see this kind of map in smasl town USA.
No, it’s not.
I thought you lived in Denver. Pretty big city. When was the last time you heard gunfire?
So you hear gunfire less than 10 times a year. You just impeached yourself.

I never claimed I lived in a red zone. But many people do live there, and they live with gun fire. They count .
They absolutely do. That's one of the critiques from the right that I think is pretty powerful. But let's be realistic: they account for a small percentage of any city (outside of the third-world shithole that is St. Louis).
Yeah, I too wish we didn’t have an obsessed gun culture, where there are more guns than people. I’m sure no European cities have this problem.
small Percentage isn’t relevant. The point is that more people feel unsafe because of the small percentage. They probably are more unsafe. The small percentage has effects beyond the boundaries.
It's absolutely relevant when you write hyperbole like "But in the cities, gun fire and violence is just like ambient background noise. It’s always present and is almost always for no reason."
Yes, Aldean is full of commercial crap.
Yes 99% of those in music and film are full of commercial crap! Great observation.Yes, Aldean is full of commercial crap.
Aldean was born in the "small town" of Macon, Georgia (pop. 157,346).

I was paraphrasing those who live with it. “Small percentage” is meaningless. Only a small percentage of high school graduates are functional illiterates . But when a substantial portion are Black kids in the big cities, it’s a big problem.

yes I forgot that other one-which I actually think is significantly better. Around these parts, Fast Car is played way too often.
Take it easy on him. At some point, you are just showboating.
He's become Lucy with a bigger vocabulary.
Gimme One Reason, Talking 'Bout A Revolution, and Baby, Can I Hold You Tonight are the others. I think all three are better than Fast Car, but sometimes the first one that breaks the mold is the most memorable.

damned by the faintest of praise- “hey you brighter than that glue huffer!”
He didn’t even write the song. It’s the video that’s controversial. Filmed in Columbia Tennessee that has racial history. Lynching and a race riot. The song to me isn’t the issue. Imho.Yes, Aldean is full of commercial crap.

The video caused me to delete Aldean from my library on Apple Music- except The Truth which holds significance to me. He’s a sell out hill Jack dog whistler now screw him. I disbelieve he didn’t know the history of that place- screw racists!!!
The straw purchase indiana thing is overblown. Most guns in Chicago are local.
If he did this for just sales or didn’t know doesn’t matter. It’s not a good look either way. The people who bought into this on both sides are pretty ignorant.
VMB, how can you say most guns in Chicago are local when only 48.3% come from Illinois ?
I get all that but people usually assume most come from out of state. Chicago lawmakers love to say Indiana is the problem. That’s why I said what I said.
A plurality are from Illinois. If you have a gun problem in Chicago and you claim Indiana, where 16% of the guns are coming from (which isn't out of the ordinary for a city that literally borders Indiana) is the main problem, that is pretty disingenuous.
True. I misspoke. I should’ve said most by state. Also the data is skewing more towards Illinois.
It doesn't matter how big or small a place is or where its located. The issue is will the citizens protect where they live? We have seen in large cities the police basically stepping aside while these anarchists with BLM and Antifa destroy many businesses. Now before we think of mostly black people let us remember that many in these movements are white. What Aldeen is saying is that in a small town the people will rise to protect their community. Thus they are not like the city folks who just let it happen. Dan Dakich on his Outkick show talked about how word had gotten out that Crown Point was going to be targeted in one of these search and destroy movements. The people of Crown Point got together and when the anarchists showed up they left because of the resistance. I was talking to my wife about this and made the point that Crown Point has black and white people in it. I would assume that both races were involved in protecting the city.
Most or at least the instigators of these city burning anarchists come from out of state too.
We’re lucky to have Dakich. And love what you wrote about protecting where you live. Father what do you think about my strategy. If the bad guys are outside my house. I use my AR. If the bad guys are inside my house. My shotgun.
