Yes, I thought it was clear my comments were based on purely personal experience hence anecdotal. I’ve lived in a lot of places over the years yet I never once had to receive and alert to be on the look for body parts in the direct vicinity of my new home the same week I moved in. Definitely haven’t experienced two spree shooters in such a short period of time either. I’m used to petty theft, burglaries, and generally unhinged homeless people but I can’t recall a police officer posting on Reddit to be on the lookout for a deranged and violent individual at the park nearest my home either.

Again, purely anecdotal and based on my own experiences. None of what I described above is normal or acceptable for a city anywhere in this country. This city has major problems.
