Yeah true. I wish they would focus that energy on something productive, like putting on-duty officers inside all schools. I honestly thought the total would be higher. 306 since 09. And im willing to bet over 95% of these are gang related with illegal firearms. 95% of those are pistols, not even rifles. The "assault weapon" debate is ridiculous on its face.

I grew up in South County and in the early 2010s saw some absolutely massive coyotes down there. Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some wolf mixed into whatever groups are running around there.

This. If you want more rural, only Rehoboth and western Seekonk north of Route 44 would meet your requirements for Massachusetts. But, Rehoboth is growing quickly, lots of houses being built there.

I never understood the allure of waiting for well over an hour for a run-of-the-mill (at best) family style chicken dinner. Village Haven is a great place to eat though...good menu, good service.

Dave’s always has some in their coolers. You need to check multiple.

Also. I personally buy 4-5 every year and keep multiple in my chest freezer. They literally will keep for decades

Meh... RI has about as robust a social safety net as you can find in the United States. Parental leave, comparatively high minimum wage, child care, TDI, TCI.

It certainly isn't a "fuck you. You're on your own." state. Maybe that helps?
