View Full Version : What a Hellhole
tiredmike59 07-31-2012, 06:41 PM 10 people shot in North St.Louis last night, 3 others the night before and 3 more on Friday night. They just drive up and down the streets picking people off. I saw the Mayor on tv a couple of months ago saying he couldn't figure out why people are leaving the city in droves and nobody wants to bring their business here. He must be smart,he's the Mayor.:rolleyes:

Mr. Television 07-31-2012, 09:34 PM The whole world is going crazy.
tiredmike59 07-31-2012, 10:03 PM I had to chuckle when they interviewed the chief of police about why there are so many shootings. He said, " Most of the elder gang leaders are in jail, so the younger ones are unsupervised "

You should see Detroit's numbers. They don't even talk to their Mayor about what's going on in that city anymore.

Our mayor has been making more appearances lately, election year.
ZeldaGilroy 07-31-2012, 11:50 PM It's sad! I live in a relatively small city, and our numbers of murder and random violence have skyrocketed this year. :( No one is truly safe anywhere anymore.
TVFactFan 08-01-2012, 12:06 AM So this is not only going on in Philadelphia and New York?

I live in a rather small area, too, in FL where not alot of violent crime goes on, certainly not alot of drive by shootings, but a few months ago, a mother shot and killed her 4 kids then herself, just about 2 miles from my house. Even a friend of mine who lives near Boston heard about it up there!!!
jasonbigley 08-03-2012, 11:43 PM We sure live in a complicated world. It does seem to be getting worse. I could not live in a big city like Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and Detroit. Where I live we have crime and what not, but NOTHING like those big cities do. I think our lives our getting too comlicated anymore. We all need to slow down and take a good look at whats important in our lives (morals, values, family and friends). Life these days seems like a big rat race.

tiredmike59 08-04-2012, 04:52 PM Has anyone ever heard of a courtesy gun ?
I saw this on the news when they had a story about a fire in an old abandoned building. Firefighters said they found a gun among the ruins and a cop said it was probably a courtesy gun (A gun used by members of a gang to commit a crime,then stashed in an old building for others to use)
duckie 08-04-2012, 07:02 PM I was in a small one owner restaurant the other day, and as I was waiting for the waitress to bring me my bill for the meal, I noticed an older man, probably his mid 50's, bussing a table across from me, with a gun, in a holster, on his side. When I went to pay my bill, he was also running the cash register. I jokingly said, man it must be a bad area around here if the workers are packing guns. lol He said yeah, you cant be to careful around here. Hopefully I wont have to use it. I hope he never has to use it to.
