Re: america in july

Depends on where you are

I remember once in college, my roommates and I heard what seemed like fireworks going off at night and we were like what holiday is this? Who's setting off fireworks? (It was nowhere near a holiday when you'd normally hear fireworks).

And then the next day we found out there had been a shooting near the school (our campus was inside the city) because we got a mass email about it reassuring us about it.

We laughed about it at the time, but I'm very glad to be living in a quiet and relatively low-crime suburb now.
