Yes, you're missing the point. Totally. You look at what I wrote and read it like a lawyer or bureaucrat would. Verbatim without any understanding of what life is like in the real world.

Every year, there are a couple nightclub shootings on Hollywood Blvd. Usually gang-related or an issue of some dude who got dissed or in some argument with another equally macho guy, and then someone pulls out a gun or leaves and then comes back with one. Just a mile away, in Boystown (Santa Monica Blvd, west of La Cienega, where By far the partygoers are gay (or gay-sympathetic), crap like that never happens. Somehow the manly straight dudes (who like to carry knives and guns and have low tolerance for using them) seem to be too homophobic to hang out there. Just my opinion, though.
