3. Had to be somewhere else.
Kennesaw has a law requiring all its citizens to own a firearm.

Gun Ownership - It's The

KENNESAW, Ga - Several Kennesaw officials attribute a drop in crime in the city over the past two decades to a law that requires residents to have a gun in the house.

In 1982, the Kennesaw City Council unanimously passed a law requiring heads of households to own at least one firearm with ammunition.

The ordinance states the gun law is needed to "protect the safety, security and general welfare of the city and its inhabitants."

Then-councilman J.O. Stephenson said after the ordinance was passed, everyone "went crazy."

"People all over the country said there would be shootings in the street and violence in homes," he said. "Of course, that wasn't the case."

7. I lived in Kennesaw and it has one of the lowest crime
rates in the metro area of Atlanta. I live next door in Woodstock and it also has a low crime rate, though we have no gun law.

6. Impossible. GOP loving Kennesaw has been crime free since requiring residents to own firearms.
