I always wondered that also. When someone is thinking about, plans on, considers, or even 100% sure about a Vegas move, they start to post in this section immediately.

When someone is 500% sure that they are moving away, they never make it to the other city's forum section.

Weird.

I almost feel sorry for these poor, obsessed wretches.

Almost.
Thank you for the reassurance. I must admit, there are times when some of the posts I read make me want to forgo my escrow and stay put (from fear of break-ins --- I'm home ALL the time). Holding on to all the positive posts/thoughts!!

Unlike the mafia run Chicago, you can own high powered assault rifles here. Although home invasions are quite common here, as long as you own a AK-47 or AR-15, you will be more than fine. I pity the fool who would try to break into my apartment when I am home.

The mafia I was referring to is your current government, mainly your communist mayor by the name of Rahm Emanuel. As far as your extreme fears of guns, I would suggest moving elsewhere. You are already living in a gun free zone, so a state such as Nevada or Arizona just won't be your thing.

LoL --- sorry. Believe it or not, some ppl actually still say "Capone" when you say Chicago. Actually, I live in a far northern suburb (32 miles N), so he's not my mayor (except I do see him on the nightly news a lot).

Guess I should clarify that my fear of guns is more a fear of being shot ---- LoL, really old recurring dream.

Don't get me wrong, I totally agree with you on that. I personally fear guns if someone were to attack me and I didn't have one!
