I have learned a lot from your posts. I just wish you could educate me less and live in a better neighborhood.

Fair Question, I was offered a number of Jobs in PRCA (Peoples Republic of California) before I retired from the Navy. I was given a choice of moving back to Pensacola or staying in CA. I choose to start over in Pensacola. People think crime here is bad, compared to what it was 20 years ago, yes. (these are people that have never lived anywhere else) Compared to any city I have lived in Cali way, not even close. 2 shooting in the past 3 months. I am used to 2 shootings a day in the same size area. I make less here but it cost less to live, and I probably am overkill in paronia for this city but OK. 1 in 10 people here are as well armed as me from the statistics I've seen, I feel better knowing that.
Some people don't have the choices I have had. Their families are there or the better half just loves the area. I've made my choice and I am happy with it.
