John - I have a friend in Batton Rouge that has said the same things as you. Things are getting dicey there too. He is well armed and just waiting for someone to step foot on his land.


In all honesty - I am a Land Surveyor and have had to work in all kinds of neighborhoods. The neighborhood I feel the most threatened in is the rural farm area. I cannot tell you how many times I have had a gun barrel leveled at me with the question. What are you doing on my land? We try to tell everyone we are there but sometimes it is difficult to get to everyone or it will just take too damn long.

When I am in the hood I make sure to lock up the truck completely when not in sight of it. But, I have never had a gun pointed at me nor has anyone given me any grief over being in their yard. The only problem I have in the hood is Pit Bulls in the yards.
