If you live east of I-65 in Mobile you'd better have a gun on you at all times, you should be armed while getting the mail, walking the dog, walking to and from your vehicle, cutting the yard etc. I would guess that 95% of black males under 25 years old are packing heat and waiting to use it in a crime, so law abiding folks need to be armed too.

They exchanged fire? Did the guy cutting grass shoot too? He may have been within his rights protecting his property and all but seems like there is more to this story.
