I saw that this morning and know that Flint, Michigan is Top 5 most dangerous. I think Detroit and STL are still 1 and 2

You're welcome

I blame Nancy Pelosi.

4. Newton, Mass

I was born there

there must be a fat joke in there.

misleading stat.

over a century ago, St. Louis city and St. Louis county split. The city thought the county would be a burden of East Germany proportions. Turns out the city is the one that needs help.

These days the city of 300,000 struggles while the county of 900,000 white folk are doing alright. We visit the city from time to time, but only when a big event happens. Too many poor blacks in the city for us to linger there.

What does it say about a person, when they CHOOSE to live in a complete shithole?

I went to school in a town adjacent.

Knew many cats from Newton who reffered to it as "Jew-ton: because of the proponderence of 16/16ths who reside there.

How is St. Louis MORE violent than East St. Louis? That makes no fucking sense to me.

RACK Tacoma for representin as the roughest place in the U&L...like that comes as a :shocker: to anyone.

What are you trying to say, Honkey Lips?

A person is never going to be better than they think they are. People who choose to live in shitholes are speaking quite clearly as to their sense of self-worth.

That's what I'm sayin'.

I would figure there's nothing left in East St Louis worth fighting for. More tourists in the city to rob and kill so ya gotta go where the best bang for the buck before your 20 to life prison sentence slows your career down a bit.

No, it isn't. That stat only includes the city.

Uhm...that's kinda what he said...hence, the reason it's "misleading."

Shouldnt you go to http://www.Shittrain.com and ask 'Spray?

mvscal wrote: But it isn't misleading.

I think he meanty to the masses.

YOU understood the city/county thing. Most readers would not.

mvscal wrote:The inner city is a violent, neeegro infested shithole.

The inner city is not violent and negro infested. It has office buildings that don't support loitering and "keeping it real". Peripheral neighborhoods are hit and miss. Those with architecture worth saving are getting money pumped in. Toyota Corollas are replacing '91 Taurus' in front of old brick homes getting tax subsidized restoration. If you go 20 blocks to the north of immediate downtown in areas that haven't seen investment since the 50's, you'll see the places the NAACP make excuses for.

I should have stated my initial premise a little more clearly.

When a person says "St. Louis" do they think of the small area constituting city limits? None of the 314 clones live in St. Louis as outlined in this survey. I live 7 highway minutes from the heart of downtown, and a mere 5 blocks from city limits, but I'm not included in "St. Louis" as described in this survey. I was in San Antonio recently and the city limits end out in some barely populated ranch area. Every square of St. Louis city limits had been developed by 1930.

Maybe some of them were asked to live there

Living in the 24th safest :cool:

Good to see it finally worked out for the developers, after the mistakes of Straw Township and Sticks Township.

Lack of economic opportunities for $1000, Alex.

Except that wolfman is now down in Florida waiting to die, so it was all a fucking waste of good bricks.

If anyone wants to know why St Louis is No.1, pulling down Death Certificate by Ice Cube off the shelf and playing track 3 might provide an answer.

If I lived where there were 'no economic opportunities', yeah, I'd either murder people ........ or move my ass somewhere where there ARE economic opportunities.

One or the other.

Rack this.

Damn, my homie got shot, he's a goner jack

Fixed that for you.

None of that post riots touchy feely shit on here brutha Bacem.

And guess where MS-13 of El Salvador - the most violent gang in the world - started?

There's a very good documentary series on UK TV at the moment about gangs around the world, and St.Louis was the American episode. The presenter ended up meeting a gang leader who was wearing a Luchadore mask and surrounded with weed, crack, PCP and loads of guns. Dunno about you, but I would have left that building with my entire lower digestive system dragging behind me.

Gangs have got fuck all to do with race, and everything to do with poverty.

Just a wild guess: El Salvador?

Nope. It was started by expatriates in LA who went back after the civil war.

You forgot "power, easy money, and hoes."

Oh, that's just the window dressing that gets 13 year-old white kids excited and makes them buy things.

If that's addressed at me, let me assure you that I can't be doing with Gangsta Rap, apart from the Bomb Squad productions of Ice Cube. Give me some Public Enemy and BDP any time.

Much rather that than swearing alliegence to you Celtic roots by getting down to the Bay City Rollers, eh Fester?

Maybe it was meant for the other 13500 pasty-white liberal Brits who post here

There's a few things that garner an autoRACK.

Lucky resets will always invoke the autoRACK system.

I'm now reminded that any and all Bay City Rollers smack does, too.

RACK!

Cor. Who knew that Ice Cube knew less about what its like to grow up in an inner city than a scared white moron sitting in his underwear behind a computer? Thanks, guys!

What about Smokie and Deebo?

You hear about that gang all the time around here.
