    How's the new East Buffalo name working out? Based on the fact that about 95% of gun violence, shootings and murders occur in Buffalo vs. all of Erie County that is saying a lot. I'd imagine there are so many more legal gun holders but typically you don't have this violence. So is it the gun itself, or the user? The person or the culture? Im sure Country music with roots in the South and probably a high concentration of guns, mentions guns often. Yet, rap music promotes it?! Hmm? Such wholesome lyrics! "That hoe set me upThat lil' dirty slut, the double crossTryna get me caughtLike I'm Randy MossAh shit, I just dropped my gun"
