Don't think I've ever heard live gunshots in my city. Even in the 90's, when the country was a bleeping warzone. Only ever heard some in the countryside, from far away (hunters or plinkers). And you are saying it's a regular occurrence?
Moved into my new place last month. Heard shots three times. One time it was just brap brap brap. Another time sounded like two. Heard a fucking shootout maybe two weeks ago, maybe 8 or 9.
Some folk mistake fireworks for gunshots, and I guess it's possible that I was just hearing kids playing with M80s or something. But I know folk who've been shot, know folk whose family have been murdered in drive-bys, and I'm familiar with the sound of gunfire. You won't even hear about it on the news.
