As a whole Macon is not THAT dangerous at all outside of certain pockets in South and West Macon. These people that are making Macon seems as it is some crime haven are crazy.

Then tries to threat me over the net, so he can seem big and bad, when he's just a child behind a monitor! Im so scared, NOT.

Man...you people either live in a bomb shelter and never come out, or you are just a bunch of liars, or you just choose not to see what a dump that town is.
I cant stand to see you two (Mayor and Yerocal) lie to unsuspecting people about Macon. I noticed neither of you posted the crime statistics that was in your own paper!!!! Hell no you didnt...because that tells the truth....you guys always want to paint this wonderful picture, and its just a lie.

The only negative comments I see are from the people who are lieing about how macon is so great and beautiful. When truly its more dark, dirty, stinky, and has a crime rate that is in the top 5 of the whole US of A. |

Crime has dropped by double digits the last two year in Macon. Last I checked Warner RObins had the crazed man shooting at enforcement officers being yards way from a school. No Macon is not Anti-Crime Heaven but what great city is. YOu notce that all major cities with crime problems have great things to do, how much crime can happen when your city is a gas spot? Now how much crime can happen when your city has clubs, bars, museums, great restaurants, huge amounts of shopping with things to do, that supports an entire region of a state. There is no comparison between the two, the gas stop will always have lower crime because there is nothing to do but fill your tank up on some $3.50 gas. Kinda like comparing Macon with Warner Robins as long as there is nothing to do but attend some museum not bigger than the lobby of Macon's SPorts Hall of Fame you'll never have crime. Not to mention that the Museum in Warner Robins sits on Federal property and who like to mess with the Federal Government no one, even criminals will tell you that. We are all grown here why do you have to speak with that language, because you are a child and children coarse to get there point accross because they think it adds something and it funny and demanding it not it makes you look stupid.

Guess you have never been to Boston? It does have crime, but nothing compared to cities like Macon, Atlanta, Miami, LA, and so on.
