      Not just crime but in large parts of the country it’s a popular myth that they can shoot you for being on their property. They can’t, that’s ridiculous, but Hollywood and popular myth won’t let it die.

        Also, legality doesn’t change the odds of some old white dude taking pot shots from his porch at strange noises, because of precisely the same popular myth
