Crime stats seem kinda high?

Hoop, I had a similar incident told to me, that supposedly happened very close to my home. It actually turned out to be true but, again the Math put it in the mid-90s. Also, it was a domestic violence issue, not a random crime.

Yes. Bad things have happened, and still occasionally do. Nobody has claimed utopia.

Crime happens everywere even in so called safe neighborhoods. I use to live off HW 210 in the vinings and we could not return to our house because a men barricaded himself in his house and was shooting at the police with an automatic weapon. The man ended up shooting himself.

samiam.............I hate to sound cruel, but I would label that "Culling the Herd"....I can not fathom what some people take it upon themselves to do, and looks to me like someone just bloody well lost it, but no further problems from that house was there?

samiam

Yeah he lost it, his wife left him for another woman

We also had quite a few breakins. My car was broken into and my $ 800.00 stereo was stolen

Ouch! I can see why he would go that route, don't agree but could understand! I have a garage my main vehicle is in and the one that has to stay outside has a detachable control panel that gets locked in the glove compartment...........at least not visible and not much to attract miscreants!
