I don't guess there's too many cities I haven't been in or was too concerned about being in. There's certainly places in each of them I wouldn't go but overall, most places are all the same. Big city, little town. Doesn't matter much. I know some bars in some little burgs that I wouldn't care to walk into without a pitbull and a bazooka or at least be a local. Outsiders wouldn't last very long. They'd only tell you to leave once. Then you had better grow wings.
As for the drug culture that's just everywhere. Sometimes I think small town America has more meth labs that the cities.

Dogs are not my whole life, but they make my life whole.
I remember walking into a bar in the middle of New York state. Literally a one stop light town. Harley parked at the end of the bar. We had just left the office and walked in for a quick drink. We had on suits and they didn't. I think the only thing we said was, "No problem. Have a good day." We didn't wait for the second invite to leave.

I also hosted an international group that landed in Chicago. Some from the Far East, some from South America. We had two guys from Malaysia. One spoke really good English but the second one spoke none. The second guy was always looking over his shoulder and finally, on the second day, I asked the first guy why his buddy was so jumpy. They yammered a bit and the first guy said, "He wants to know where the police are." I said they're around do you need one? In the best English you have ever heard, the second guys says, "Al Capone. Shoot 'em up. Bang bang."
I felt bad laughing but I couldn't help it. It was pretty funny. He was scared to death he was going to be killed by wise guys.

and aren't an awful lot of the employees wearing giant cartoon character masks? How do you tell them from the robbers? Who wants to take the blame for shooting Goofy? even if it is self-defence...Donald Duck sure, but Goofy? come on people.
I was thinking of the massive swell of humanity staggering around with nausea and headaches from the hundred degree heat and the combined sugar/adrenaline rush. That's too scary for this ol' bushrat.
some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

MS-13 is not restricted to just hispanics, they have members from all races. Meth is most produced in suburbia and country areas, the stench alone his horrible. I have been on numerous meth lab sites here in Cincy and they are bad juju to walk into and serving warrants on the makers is extremely hazardous. Nearly all the chemicals used in the production of meth are caustic, corrosive, or flammable. Severe injuries due to chemical exposure are not uncommon for meth cooks, and many die each year (big loss there), injuries range from burns, blisters, boils, to scabbing that leaks a yellowish puss. There are over 150 processes for making meth. A real shame that is what our country has come to and getting worse.
There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.
I grew up hanging in #2 and #7. I can tell you #7 is worse then #2

She puts up with me and let's me do pretty much what I want to, She was well escourted and the tickets were over$500 which her boss paid for. I would have rather had the cash but WTH and anyway MY bday is in 2 weeks and there is still the lever action shotgun FVR posted that I want.. But seriously I would never tell her what to do I make my thoughyts known and let her make her own decisions.
