Guest Rapper is glad that he gets to carry a .45 when he's in the area after dark. It's not a matter of "negativity," it's a matter of reality. You cannot deny that you are a small island in the middle of a very stormy sea. Walk two blocks East or two blocks West, and you'd better be carrying a piece, too. Problem is, the folks you may meet while walking can walk, also....right up to your doorstep.
