I hear gunshots every night. Of course, I live in the inner city so it's not really any big deal anymore.

My neighbors say they hear guns a lot. I've been able to trace all the times back to my shooting sessions in the back yard.

From my living in the dorms at UDel (bad area only like two blocks away) and hearing gunshots all the time, I've come to the conclusion that the local cops dont respond to shootings.  There have been a couple where I thought about getting behind a wall or something, cause it sounded damn close, but that could have been the sound bouncing off the buildings so who knows where it came from.  Damn I wish I had my Ar-15 there.

Gunfire in the streets...Music to my ears.

Do what I do, Lock & Load and keep holed up. It's bad if you need to go out though.

Come on, if you live in Dallas you should be used to them. I live on white rock lake and if there are not any shots in the night, somethings wrong.

I hear gun fire around my home all the time. Usually it's me. Sometimes it's the guy down the road. Other times it's the other guy down the road. [:D]

Crap, two nights ago I had two shot RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE! 00:32 hours

I had just fallen into a deep sleep. The first shot I thought it was just in a dream. I somewhat woke up. The second shot, I jumped from my bed, yelled "Holly shit!" Grabbed my pistol off my bed stand.

Now like an idiot, I went out side fast. Used the cover of the car to check things out. I only saw tail lights going around the corner.

It was really weird and surrealistic looking back. Me in a pair a sweats, with no shoes, socks, or shirt on, in my carport with a pistol trying to find something to shoot at.

I went in and put the pistol away and went back outside to try to find which house or whatever they were shooting at. Never did find anything, no casings, nothing.

I waited for the sirens for an hour. Nothing but another series of 2 shots some blocks away. I thought about calling the police, but remember when I did that acouple years ago. It took the police over an hour to send a patrol car to get more information. I finally went back to bed, thinking of all the senarios I should have, would have done differently. Like grabbing my AR instead of the pistol.

Guzzler,
Where in AZ are you? Next grab the ar but stay inside. Use something inside for cover. I must say I've done the same thing though.

Pezmaster,

I am in the Phx metro. A semi-quiet neighborhood. Unfortunately the house really doesn't have many vantage points to look out of. The carport provides the best spt to see the most.

I thought about putting my Ninja outfit on afterwards, but it wouldn't have mattered anyway, it was at the cleaners. This is the last time I buy a ninja suit that says Dry Clean only!
