Jacked up trucks don’t incite violence. Speeding doesn’t always incite violence. Also a lot of vehicles that turn onto 95 are also headed to quintette were a lot of neighborhoods have been established around the Wallace lake area and also further north towards molino. But what I think a lot of people don’t realize is a lot of the drug attics actually grew up in these neighborhoods. They came from the village and in cottage hill along with some others from other places. But nowadays people for some reason think it is better to pull a trigger then confront someone. It is a sad world we live in. And to compare gun ownership to voting is just mind blowing not a good comparison by far!
Northender:
Just because someone drives a jacked up truck doesn’t mean they’re going to be involved in a road rage shooting…
Just because someone drives a bit faster than you doesn’t mean they’re going to be involved in a road rage shooting…
Just because someone has a gun LEGALLY doesn’t mean they’re going to be involved in a road rage shooting…
Your rational is lacking.
Same thing with Atmore, Flomaton Bratt etc.
Face it, we need more law enforcement! Nothing wrong with being proactive.
I drive 29 pretty much everyday and coming through Cantonment we have noticed that about 80-90% of the fast, crazy, aggressive drivers (most of them usually in jacked up trucks) driving north on 29 veer off on 95A headed toward that area. Not surprising at all.
I moved out here, in Cottage Hill, back in 1995 for peace and quiet. I’ve noticed lately this area is turning into a drug infested, robberies and violence ridden area. I love this area, but I don’t want to live in fear.
but of course EVERYONE can have a gun !!! and there are millions of them out there–BUT not EVERYONE can vote and there are millions of them out there! Remember the song If I only had a brain on the wizard of oz??? the more guns the more crime DUHHHH
