I hear gunshots in my neighborhood, and the police responding to them, and that's okay

 Every so often during the evenings I'll hear a few bangs, hoping they're fireworks but almost always they're gunshots. On most occasions they're fired by deranged people, not particularly well aimed and nobody hurts. And then I hear the very loud police sirens pass by my apartment, on to the location to sort the situation out. It's okay, they're not random acts of violence I know that, and if this is the price for living in a hip neighborhood on a pretty great city, the tradeoff is worth making for me right now.
