Actually civilized folk exist outside of gated communites, too.

I guess not where you live though. It sounds, from your replies, that random gunfire is perfectly normal and acceptable in your "hood".

If you know of a way to enforce law to a point where all crime is prevented before it takes place, then please do share. I am all ears.

The last city where I wanted, but was not allowed to, wear a bullet resistant vest was Saigon 45 years ago. I would suggest a few current cities are Jerusalem, Baghdad and any place in Afghanistan or Pakistan. Or Tijuana.

Totally appropriate for a post full of ridiculous assertions that have no supporting evidence.

How about by preventing this:

Recidivism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You can't stop a crime before it is committed but you can stop criminals from repeating crimes.

It's not a very hard concept to grasp.

Actually what is "totally appropriate" in a discussion is a counterpoint.

"Crap" is not a counterpoint; its a cop out.

It is a waste of time to "counterpoint" nonsense. Post something that is factually valid, then we can have a discussion.

Oh, I see. You mean, "post something that I agree with then we can have a discussion".

O.K.
