re: Hearing gunfire on a regular basis - what’s your tolerance level.

This happens to some mid city neighborhood streets because they are right slap next to the hood

I live in the country. I hear gunshots almost daily.

Man, I’d hate to be your neighbor... about once or twice a week I’ll take my guns sour back and shoot a few times. You must be a gun hating democrat....

I’m not as bothered as the wife..and most of it is over a mile away with significant thoroughfares in between.

It depends. If its an old white guy with an AR15 then its a real problem.. He could be a white supremist or mass shooter.

If its a young black male gang banging.. Dont worry about. Its not a problem and you should defund your local police to correct the issue.

You joke, but when the kids up the road start shooting at night and the dogs start barking, I dump a 25 round drum of 12 gauge.

Not joking.

I hear it quite a bit in Jackson.

New Year's Eve I get to hear full mags emptied

my first night in my new apartment in baton rouge (north side of lsu in 2000) i heard 7 gunshots after dark.
The old milking parlor at LSU had a bullet hole in the plexiglass coming from the north.
my third apartment in baton rouge, I walked outside to do laundry and stepped on a spent 45 slug that had gone way way up and come down and imprinted with the concrete.
The above three incidents were thugs
My current situation is poachers, but at least they are good shots

I use to live right on the edge of south baton rouge and heard gun shots once. If you are hearing multiple times a week you need to move

I grew up in the 70119 zip code of New Orleans - there are very good neighborhoods and not very good ones

Needless to say my tolerance is pretty high unless it’s in my yard and not me shooting
