You want to influence our thinking toward the negative, and we'd like for you to see the positive. But that's really impossible to do when dealing with those who are always negative about everything. They think it's their duty to bring everyone down to the dark, miserable place where they live, and any attempt to get them to see things in a good light will fail.


buzz you missed my point I'm not just harping about the negative things in las Vegas . i just get upset when you and others insult and mock other people with opposing views . i understand las Vegas has some positives and negatives just like any other city but my recent posts have pointed out the negatives of living in this city. i don't understand why you and others put on blinders and act like this ciy is paradise and has no faults. just talking with longtime residents they have told me that the cost of housing has skyrocketed , crime is getting worse , schools are horrible , people are not civil to each other. having lived here for 2 years i can see all of what they are saying . that is why i moved back to Wisconsin. their is nothing wrong with criticizing this city its not perfect it has alot of of room for improvement. so go ahead and point out the all the great thing this city has to offer and me and other will point out the negatives . just be respectful of other peoples posts and understand that someone may have an opposing view. thank you for your understanding buzz.

know what i have lived here since birth and yes there are bad areas but when i passed through chicago one nigh i did notice an area where the cops stopped guess what i had to go through there to get to the airport lucky me lol i didnt mind much but trust me this place is a good place to live and im sure when i lived in indiana for a few that place was better but i hated the country life i mean podunkville aint the place for me

If you get jealous reading this, don't worry one will be near you soon. I also can't get enough of unique restuarants like Chili's and Applebees, thankfully there are plenty of those too. Oh, and I can't forget all the wonderful fast food chains that build on every empty lot. This way if I am too lazy to go to Chili's I know I can choose from dozens of nearby places. If I'm craving Mexican food, I have several nearby Taco Bells, German food? Wienershnitzel! Seafood? Long John Silvers! I also enjoy driving around town. There is always lots of road construction going on, so there is always something fun and interesting to look at while I am stopped at a stoplight, wondering why they are tearing up the same road agian. I don't know why you guys are so hard on the schools here. I grew up here and am a product of the wonderful Clark County school district, so I know firsthand that they are great. I for one loved that almost a third of my fellow classmates wouldn't be getting a diploma because this meant I was going to have a leg up on them when I applied for my first low-paying, service indusrty job. It was also great to go to school each day and see so many of my fellow classmates getting an early start on what is most important, a family. Another thing I love is the many neighborhood bars and casinos. Since it is too hot for parks, we get what really matters to a community, multiple bars. This way I know that I can drink and gamble really close to home, making the drunken drive home or to Walmart much easier to swallow. Having so many neighborhood casinos is the best part though. This way I can see a movie, eat a meal, and gamble part of my hard-earned pay check. If I lose track of time and spend a little too much, no worries because I know there are several nearby check cashing places where I can get a nice high interest loan. I agree with everyone else, if you don't like it here, or can't say something nice, then do us all a favor and leave. We almost have all of the best chains in the country, and I'm tired of hearing you guys rip this place apart. What if some chain like Dunkin' Donuts for example reads your posts and decides not to bring their wonderful donuts here because of all the negativity you spread? You want to eat Winchells for the rest of your life?


hahahahahahahaha omg that is funny and true seriously why complain when everything is here everything you could possibly want is right around the corner hahahahahahaha yeah theres some bad things but everywhere has bad thing just look at the good

I suppose that could be a result of the unbridled growth which is something I also hate.

Buzz123, who are these "people" that people like you wouldn't want to live next to? Mexicans? Mexicans have been moving into the Las Vegas area and improving these old neighborhoods that no one cared about until now. It's irritating to see so many racist comments in here these days.


oh wait hey lookie here you bash someone for saying something but they made no racist comment you dont know him maybe he is mexican you dumb a$$ seriously dont put words in peoples mouths it just makes you look like king dont know sh#! so go back to bed and insert you foot back in your mouth and shut up

Hopefully, oj's arrest will follow with sharpton and jackson organizing a boycott of LV, thereby lowering the crime rate by 75%.

possible theory there, sheriff. How appropriate that LV is the backdrop for the latest OJ saga! It's tough to tell whether there are more tabloid photographers or foreclosure lawyers at that courthouse!

Swooshhhh (sound of the toilet flushing)
