I'm a bit confused as to where you are going with this Warren. Just what are you saying? Are you saying that people shouldn't consider AC a safe destination? Are you saying that we should all be so worried about it, that we stay away? Sign a petition? Take back the SP streets?
Certainly, I do agree with you that it is a sad state of affairs that one needs to be cautious. But such is life and regardless, how cautious does one need to be? For example, as you read, personally, I don't think it's very cautious to carry around wads of cash . . .anywhere. I get the impression that you think we should be doing something about the "crime wave" so that we can carry around wads of cash without compunction.
I reiterate, I'm not saying that I've always been that smart or that careful, however, smart and careful will *help* to keep a person safe most anywhere. Sometimes it doesn't matter how safe and careful a person is, bad things happen, no matter where that person may find themselves.
So what are you getting at Warren? Should we all just stay home with the doors locked and the windows barred? Then we'd all be safe and not have our head in the sand, ass up to Bubba, right? Help me out here, I need some clarity from you. Thanks.
