Can you ever go a whole day without insulting someone? Pretty stupid award as it is based on tourists that don't stray off the beaten path. I judge a place
by the whole picture. When I visit Louisville, Ky for the first time I asked the employees at the track where the bad neighborhoods are. I actually handed
a bartender $5 at CD and asked her to circle the areas on a street map. It was very early so I wasn't holding up any lines.
If you think your state is so great, find me a bigger crime riddled slum than East St. Louis, Illinois. I bet I have driven through more slums than you have and I even walked through Skid Row in LA daily for a year+.

Second Chance bullet proof vests might be a better grab.

I’ve been to White Sox games. Never had a problem-except they were White Sox games. I’ve been to many high school basketball games in many parts of the city and never had a problem. There are areas I try to avoid, but every city has those.

Once again, I’m at a loss for words. You asked the bartender to circle the bad areas of Louisville. Why? I’ll take things that never happened for $200, Alex.

We have five major sports team; six if you count soccer as a sport. Chicago has literally hundreds of good restaurants, a thriving theater scene, many concert venues and and an eclectic club scene.
I’d certainly rather live here than Beaverbutt, Va.

Why? As with what people call hot when it comes to hot sauce or salsa, opinions vary by region or with bad neighborhoods it varies by locale on what people call a bad neighborhood. I did notice biased liberals like yourself will judge neighborhoods by skin color, my ex girlfriend was like that. She said Skid Row in LA did not look bad to her, but if we went through a run down area full of white people, it was a poor shit hole. If the same looking place was full of black and brown people it was a working class neighborhood.
I would hook you up but, I would not wish her on my worst enemy and from some of your postings I do not think you are interested in grown women. You said "WE" when speaking of LGBTQ or whatever they are and have also posted pictures on naked boys.
I answered your question as I always do, now answer mine, what are your skills that people can earn a living by, other than stamp licking?
I cannot prove my claim as that map was one of those local maps handed out by the rental car company, not a souvenir worth keeping. I actually looked in my map collection.
