My sister lives in the Upper Penisula. Once she opened her door and a 2 1/2 foot snake crawled into the house. Her back 40 acres is full of people with guns during hunting season. She and her husband don't want the hunters there, but you can't stop them. It's a swamp and they have been hunting back there longer than my sister has owned the property. Go back there in the wrong season and you fear you will be shot. There is nothing funny about being shot in your own back 40.
Oh yes, and they have bears.
My wife is afraid of bugs, bears, snakes, and basically anything that moves. She would fear for her life in the country!
Look out! A raccoon! There is only one thing to do!! Move to an obscure corner of Detroit where we can be safe!
Is crime so bad when you are living in it and taking precautions? Most likely not, unless you happen to get caught in a bad situation. Just like my sister might get caught, in her back 40.
Should you fear the city? Should you fear the country? Should you fear everything?
