A lot of people here have the mindset “it’s never happened to me so therefore everyone is being dramatic.” While I’m not too paranoid about people Breaking into my home in this neighborhood, I always hear gunshots and police sirens every few months. And I certainly would not leave anything unlocked a few blocks down from my street. I tend to be vigilant either way. I don’t have the luxury of being white or loving of America, so there are real threats out there, but I usually don’t expose my beliefs enough for it to be detrimental to my life.
