And country folks here nearly all have a gun ... and get high on lao kao ... when drunk and upset by something there is a risk that they use it without even thinking about it ... ( they hardly do anyway )

Is this the right country to retire in ... I am not sure anymore ... may be city life is better ...?

Cities you got tooled-up taxi drivers/riders and a fair percentage of the public carry something.
