Perhaps. Now here is another question. Why not the writer just get to the point and say what he really means?

This is funny! So my husband and I who bought here and who make decent money and aren't criminals should move because you want to make a strip mall. Okay......



I agree with this above. It is the politicians who have wasted all the money also the city officials who gave all that money to unqualified "community organizations." People set up community organizations just to get the money and jump ship. Most of them weren't even prosecuted so this sets a precedence in the area that if you set up a non-profit and come over here and say you are going to do something, you can get millions of dollars without actually having to do it.

Also, I drive by your properties every day when I pick up my daughter from daycare!

I also posted some pics in the Atlanta pic threads of my neighborhood. I went on a walk and took them with my kids. We weren't accosted, killed, yelled at, nothing. A guy did ask me why I was taking pictures though but he wasn't mean and he was a nice guy.
I think I know where your house is?Is it new?Well less than 4 yrs old and all brown brick?Theres a irongate and fence around it.Very nice house.

Default Snow on the Bluff

So, I just finished watching the film "Snow On The Bluff" on PSN. I will admit that it was somewhat of a tough pill to swallow. However, I'm left with only one question... What ever came of Curtis Snow and his son?

Just as sad when a grandmother was killed by police in the Bluff.

For the story that Atl has the 3rd highest child prostitution rate in the country. I hope that's false.

I heard of the big prostitution of 16-17 years olds in Atl, which is terrible, but there are countries where 9-12 year old children are sold as 'tutes on the regular.

I hope Atl isn't really compteting with the other scumbag locations in that statistic

I remember once when i was going to gsu i got approached by a very pregnant teenage girl who broke down and starting crying and asked me for money because she was hungry/homeless, that was probably the wore thing that I've seen in Atlanta. The city REALLY needs to do more to tackle this kind of stuff.

Better yet, the people who are engaged in crime in the Bluff and are ruining the quality of life there could, like, stop doing it.

I dont think its that simple considering its kids who are getting exploited for the must part when it comes to prostitution.

Watched snow on tha bluff last night. It's chilling to see such blight that close to our intown neighborhoods. Not sure how much of that documentary was scripted but it looked like a total war zone. Something you would expect in a third world country.

Has anything come of our mayor's trip to England to discuss poundberry with Prince Charles?
