I don't even know where to start in explaining all the things wrong here
When I left home this afternoon, I briefly disturbed two doe and four fawns eating ground ivy in my front yard. When I get home, I'm going to hear crickets in the woods behind my house, and bullfrogs in the pond. I'll probably hear the big owl in my neighbor's tree, talking to his girlfriend down the road.
While I was last in the city, I saw a homeless guy pissing on the sidewalk, dozens of boarded buildings, and hundreds of broken windows. I heard four sets of gunshots. The local "park" has nothing growing in it; it has an asphalt basketball court and a gravel playground with busted equipment. An industrial site has a methane flare burning overhead 24/7.
The reason you are having a rough time explaining what's wrong with my argument is that you are accustomed to the dystopian nightmare of urban living, and expect everyone to accept and tolerate that nightmare.
Sorry dawg I grew up in a rural area. I have to return to rural areas frequently to visit family and I currently live in a suburban area so... sorry? But your anecdote is pretty awful
I didn't have a difficult time explaining anything, where did you get that from lol
Hmm. I must have misunderstood when you said:
Obviously lol
