This is like 99% of the US. Reactionaries cling to their guns like Ze Germans are just off the coast of Nashville, ready to invade. But first, they dropped a bunch of highwaymen and mafiosi all over the country to rob every bank and car dealership before killing all hostages and running away carrying comically large bags with dollar signs on them filled with cocaine and methamphetamine.

The overwhelming majority of places are safe. Most homicides occur between people who know each other. The actual, most dangerous places are the wilderness with bears and mountain lions, places where no one lives and it's pitch black at night because the nearest building with electricity is 100 miles away. Americans do not go to these places and they sure as shit don't live there.

Of course, that doesn't stop them open firing on one of their kids getting a glass of water from the kitchen in the middle of the night because they think ISIS is trying to steal their fridge specifically.
