(Not true, of course. But there are a lot of towns where practically
*nobody* shoots.)



Lots of guns in my litttle hick desert oil field town. Last two
murders...some years ago, were with knife and beer bottle/boots.

Burglaries are up though..lots of illegals moving into town.

We have lots of legal immigrants from India and Korea, and a fair number of
illegals from Mexico. They ride bikes and keep a very low profile. No crime
from those groups, especially the Mexicans, who stick out like sore thumbs
and they know it.

Much of our crime comes in on the commuter train. No kidding. They get on in
Newark, Elizabeth, or New Brunswick, stop off here and sometimes even ride
the commuter train home after some unnoticed petty theft.
