Guns! Hunting! OMG

I suspect you’ve identified the cause of their unease.

[MNDude]

In my opinion, it’s racist to feel unsafe.

[Nea Wood]

Tens of millions of illegals committing “acts of love” were and are allowed in, against the wishes of the vast majority of Americans. Now millions of Americans have to “feel unsafe.”

We should be rioting in the streets, demanding that illegals be removed or we’ll remove them ourselves.

Generally, perhaps, but not absolutely.

If you haven't already, read In Cold Blood, the Truman Capote book on the real-life murders of the Clutter family. They lived on a farm.

Hartford? Bridgeport? New Haven? Newark?

[Vigilanteman]

Another common factor seems to be, how can I put this delicately?, demographics dominated by certain ethnic groups other than white or Asian.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Sometimes I can’t even find my way out of these woods...

[JRandomFreeper]

And it's so frigging rare that someone wrote a book when it happened.

I was on Beale Street a few years ago and I didn’t feel safe. Not at all.

AND IT WAS BROAD OPEN DAYLIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY!.

Yakima?
Yakima has been a rough town for a very long time.

Feeling safe doesn’t matter. Being safe does. Are there any areas where a person is safe? Would you let your grandmother go out for a walk with your daughter?

Is there any area where there is a sense of society? Where people go out for a walk in the city?

Not many, eh?

Would you let your grandmother go out for a walk with your daughter?

Aside from it obviously being the zombie apocalypse if that can happen, yes, there are places where it is safe for people to go out for a walk. Probably more in fly-over country than in the north-eastern corridor.

Because of the media always leading with blood, it may seem (to people devoid of math skills) that this is a very dangerous country. It's not.

No Chicago?

[JRandomFreeper]

They all feel safe. They all have guns. ;)

Don’t most folks in rural areas leave their doors unlocked?

At least they used to.

[dhs12345]

Lol.

The drugs help, too.

[Paladin2]

The Boy Scouts had it right.

[dhs12345]

Maybe partly because they are being lied to.

RE: No Chicago?

Chicago is a BIG city. Just avoid the South side and you’ll be OK.
