re: Stray bullet kills English astrophysicist visiting Atlanta

When I told my mom we were leaving largely because of the crime present in Louisiana she scoffed and told me that crime happened everywhere.

She is right. I can certainly be the product of somebody having a bad day going on a rampage up here in Idaho. Someone could even be having a gun fight and I get hit with a stray bullet.

But it is a lot less likely in some areas than others, Atlanta being a prime example.

EDIT -- Authorities say reckless discharge. I still stand by my point.
