Having grown up in northern Michigan myself, the only problem you really have to deal with is bar fights and teenagers driving under the influence........And those are easily dealt with on the the city or county level.
I've yet to read of any escalation in gun violence.
Where I live, we only see a county cop car roll through town about twice a month.
Domestic Violence
Assault and Battery
Operating under the Influence of Alcohol
Operating under the Influence of Drugs
Animal Abuse
Any crime involving booze.
Resisting and Fleeing the cops
Failing to register as a sex offender
Larceny
Embezzlement
Criminal Sexual Conduct, with minors, family members and former spouses.
Child abuse
Those are some of the crimes we had this week. Oh, and the drinking and driving? Most of ours are not minors.
But no gun crimes...oh, wait, there was that felon who was busted for something else who had a gun in his car. That’s it for guns.
