So... while I'm known for being outspoken, even a bit too outspoken, you actually suspect me of deliberately trying to bring about the end of my being able to speak my views on this subject?

I'm telling you I wanted not to get the thread closed, and you essentially are calling me a liar.

What, I can't speak my opinion that the cops have no valid excuse for taking 20 minutes to get to a SHOTGUN SHOOTING? :barf:

The reason it took 20+ minutes is simple. It sounds like you do not live in the best part of town. I lived in the not so great part of town "ghetto" up until a few months ago. It was pretty scary sometimes esp. new years eve. Boom...Boom...wait was that last one a gunshot? All of my guns were loaded at all times because home invasions are an everyday thing there. A few guy's were shot one time and it took the cops three hours to get there. My advice to you is to move. I left that all of that behind me and moved to the peacefull country.

You did the right thing and all you really could have done.

Now, do another right thing.... move

I'll add my vote for moving. Unless, of course, you enjoy that kind of excitement.
