Ror,
Having been through (not participated in) more than a few drive bys and seen a multitude more in both SF and Oakland, I can assure you it happens a lot more than most people realize. Maybe not as much now as 10 or 15 years ago, but......
The playgrounds get closed for a bit and then reopend. Schools have a day off and then back to SOP once cleared by the authorities, supermarkets board up their windows and continue with business once they are allowed to reopen.
Punk,
I am with you on the prostitution and drug issue as well. I despise the fact that so many laws are based on morality.
As for the gun issue, I was looking for opinions on the scenario. I believe Zeb said that it is based on emotion and that what sort of what I was looking for. If you have had a negative experience with something your emotions are often times what fuels your opinion on it. I was wondering if anyone else thought that some of the people who are looking for a ban or harsher controls may be good people who have seen too many bad things.
I find it interesting that it so few people took my question at face value and simply assumed I wanted stricter gun control. Or that I was a liberal. People read too much into things.
