Start your own gang and desingate guard duty and patrols and then maybe you won't have time to post fake posts.
wow that must be terrible... what is the bronx?
When you say you have your own "piece" I take it you mean hair piece?
This is not an adequate means of defence against an armed agressor however it is likely to cause sonfusion and hysterics which would buy you valuable escape time.
brooklyn....in new york
as a poet once said "the bronx? no thonx!"
seriously, though, having your own gun will not make you safer. it will make you 300 x more likely to be killed by gun. to be safe, wait till you are old enough to move from that hellhole neighborhood you live in. Good luck
hang in there. Be proud that ur gonna come out of all this, and that you'll more than likely be extremely confident, independent and street-wise.
nothing soft comes out of the bronx.
That must be horrible, and dont feel ashamed to be scared, the majority of people would be in your situation. Just be very careful and try not to stress about it. You could maybe get some very high quality ear plugs. Maybe try to talk to whoever you live with that you're scared and that you want to move.
Living in the big city (I'm from Northern California), this kind of thing is de rigueur. Many nights we hear the county sheriff's helicopter hovering overhead, either broadcasting the facts about a lost child or casting a search light into the yards and streets around me. One afternoon, several sheriffs pounded on my door and demanded to search my backyard -- seemed some hoodlum was on the run and they thought he was hiding in my garbage can.

Anyway, this sort of thing never gets easy to live with. At your age, I would definitely recommend against a gun for some of the reasons you've already read here. Get some advice from your family and/or local law enforcement types to get suggestions on appropriate protection. I certainly don't blame you for being scared in these circumstances, and I hope you'll be able to get some peace of mind soon.
