Wait a minute!

I thought Canada was supposed to be the paragon of North American Society, and violence free and all.

Never believe what you hear....this city used to be safe...until the invasion of drugs and the criminal elements that go with them!!!!!!!!!!!

What did the cab driver do in your situation?

Ring the bell and say, "May the best fare win!"

Read Kitty01's tale of neighborhood violence....then rethink Canadian peaceniks...LOL

Absolutely nothing...I guess he did cause he left with them after watching what they did to me.....I know this all sounds far out and like someone's worst nightmare...and believe me it was...I wouldn't have believed it myself...if I was not the one laying on the bottom.....

In your fairy tale land maybe. Here in the lower mainland there are gangs .... so there are a lot of drive by shootings going on lately as well as the crimes from people stealing to support their habits.

Oh and I was not alone...I had two other friends with me as witnesses...so it was never just my word against theirs either....

no not at this time, those pesty kids started another fire in our yard, plus with the stabbing at our gate, so on and so on.

What a dick!

I hope he got beat down too!

No, no, no, drive by shootings?

Everyone knows Canada is a gun free nation.

Some how I doubt it...and yes...I had a lot of anger toward him too and in fact boycotted that cab company.....

we have drive by shooting all the time, Canada is not gun free the cops now have a gang unit to investigate and the stabbing here was drug related. Two doors down they sell drugs.

Yep...the same as in Toronto...and innocent people get killed by the bullets cause they have their gun fights right out on the streets now...regardless of who is in the way....

Just on the news this morning two houses got coctails thrown threw their windows and fires started, plus someone stoled a big yellow cat and put it on the train tracks and this morning the train derailed here in the city, the road is all blocked up and closed.

I was approached by a gang of hoodlums one time in Louisiana. There was about 6 or 8 of them. I punched the two that were closest, and they all ran away.

Another time, also in Louisiana, I was riding a bicycle home from work. A carload of youngsters drove by, and swung an ax handle at me but missed. The four of them got out and said, "You're about to get your ass whipped!"

I took a .380 out of my waistband, pointed it at the guy with the ax handle and said, "Oh, Really?"

They ran away too. They came in the store I was working at the next day, and apologized. They claimed they had me confused with someone else. Someone without a pistol next to his pistol I guess.

So we have wild wild west everywhere.
I wrote you about broken glass and you shooted me with guns stories and beaten women.
Violence was, violence is and violence will be I'm affraid.

I feel safe in my neighborhood, than I get locked up, it would be so much easier if I had the combination.

I feel very safe walking around the neighborhood in the buff.














Neighbors run inside and lock their doors

I am very fortunate, I live in a relatively safe neighbourhood, yes. We have very little trouble of any kind and I don't feel the in the least unsafe when I go out, even at night.

I do feel for those less fortunate, the wrong type of neighbour can make one's life hell, I have no doubt!

you are very lucky in the area that I live in, police go around in 2's for safety reasons, you can buy anything you want even after 10.30pm aslong as it is not a pint of milk!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we have squad cars and riot vans round on a regular basis, there has been at least 5 murders, umpteen stabbings and lost count of street fights in this area

But one thing I do know is that I have good neighbours and we all look out for each other

do I feel safe as last year I was sprayed with pepper spray in the face for sticking up for some young kids on the way home from school, the person that did it to me was a 38yr old drunk
