We were thinking about picking up Chinese food from Chinatown for Christmas but we heard about a elderly Chinese-American man who lives in that area being shot to death while picking up a newspaper. Now, my father doesn't want to go to Chinatown because of the crime there. It's not an isolated incident, there's been many assaults going on there since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S....mostly targeted at Asians.

Wow, that sucks! I've lived in a rural area my whole life, so I've never had to think too hard about violent crime.

Yeah, I guess. But aren't there gun nuts or drunks who live in the country? (Forgive my ignorance)

I suppose I should. I mean, I'm not really scared myself, since I'm convinced these things still happen fairly unfrequently anyway. Still, I could see his concerns.
