I'll be in Tampa next weekend just to fish. But you can still have Florida with it's high crime rate. I'll be right there wondering how many of those boat running around are filled with dope and thugs. Just save me a little sand to kick.

Did I miss something? Since when is West Little Rock (Green Mountain) the ghetto? Crime happens everywhere and on everyside of town. Ignorance is killing us all.

Its not in the ghetto, heck in that case it is a ghetto everywhere you go, there are whites killing all over the world. rape and murdering hiding the bodies, burning cars..but some how you ignorant people can only focus on urban communities, get a life..worry about your own. im from what you call the ghetto. single mother of two children..but. I am about to graduate with my Bach degree in criminal justice, open my own business and writing two books. so it is not about living areas, but the ignorant people inside it, and you all are no better than them. Good Day..!
