Just heard about gangs in Cumming...

I lived in Forsyth after living in Clayton county. The only problem I had was mexicans chasing my truck when I went to buy gas on Hwy 9. In Clayton the thugs just tried to steal it twice.

I moved to this area from Miami, FL looking for the small town feel, and the mountains. My family is packing as we speak, and we are literally dying to get out. In all honesty, your biggest concern should not be the gang bangers, you need to watch out for the locals! It is rather difficult to explain, I struggle to understand it myself. So let me begin by asking you: What kind of people does it take to recite Bible verses about God's will and in the same breath call someone a ****** or a filthy mexican? I think it is the same kind of people that without remorse held other humans prisoners as slaves while reading passages in the bible or singing "We are all God's children". I really do not know if it is pure ignorance or just complete disregard for others. My husband says they are like a 2 headed monster; one head is very religious, the other head is so malignant and obviously they never talk to each other...
Sometimes it seems as if time has not passed in this region. Occasionally, the KKK marches thru our town, yearly the confederates march for various celebrations and nightly confederate flags are waved by young boys and girls as they drive looking for dark parking places to gather for enterteinment.
I never stop in my amazement that the very people that subscribe to this philosophy of hate are the very people that uphold the laws of our community and very "devoted" Christians. The children I believe are the ones most affected, there is absolutely nothing to do; It is illegal to skateboard in public parking places or private parkings even if the owner of such parking grants permission. My daughter and 2 her friends were recently arrested for skating and roller blading in public even after the gentleman that owned the property pleaded with the arresting officers to let them go... To find a place to dance they must drive nearly 20-30 miles -there is no place to go in almost 10 counties in North GA- and if the children are minors and are unable to drive, the only other choice is to gather in dark parking lots, usually Burger King's or Dairy Queen's after hours; there are NO sidewalks, or parks that would facilitate healthy entertainment for preteens or teenagers, even though most counties around here report to have millions of dollars in surplus. This is definetely NOT a nice place to live. People are very dishonest with themselves, their God and others. If you are not racist, selfish, and southern baptist I suggest you stay in California or this place will eat you alive!.
By the way, I travel quite a bit, I live in a very nice neighborhood ($500,00 and up) and I'm not black... lived in Miami, got robbed 0 times, lived in GA been robbed at least 5 times by many a church going "friends and neighbors"

What County or town do you live in? BTW I believe every word you said.
