Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

I've always assumed that the countryside's lower per-capita crime rate was tempered by response times, isolation, a lack of witnesses etc.
I promise not to duck.

My experience around a small town is the same stuff happens, but either no one knows or everyone knows.

They're not saying much yet except that a 47 yo has been arrested in Williston ND and a 22 yo in Rapid City SD.
