    I used to live in both too and I heard it a lot in Houston during the holidays and when the Astros won the world series. I heard random gunfire so much in New Orleans I stopped calling the cops. One time I saw a guy shoot at a group outside a bar I was working at and the cops didn’t come for like 40 minutes. No one was hit but if they would have stopped and talked to us we could have told them who it was. Things were wild there for a few years after Katrina compared to before.
