Yes, over and over. And the people who go there have expressed that they have no intention of stopping. Do you think mentioning LLB in every west end crime post will change that? I wonder why you feel the need to control people.

It should be noted that this poster lives on the East Side and considers everywhere in Providence to be a short walk.

But by any reasonable standard, there aren't any beautiful safe streets within a short walking distance of Long Live.

Now pull my other leg.
Who is pulling whose leg?

My comment is accurate.

Like MP, you are trying to suppress information. And you're hijacking the thread in the process.

A stabbing happened not far from Long Live a few nights ago. Serious violent crimes happen in that neighborhood on a regular basis.

The video is 23 seconds.

Some of our members are essentially saying:


"Hey, don't tell them the stabbing happened not far from our beloved brewery! Be quiet about that. Nobody needs to know that. Just say it happened near an obscure meat market."

Long Live is known throughout the region, never mind Providence. I had NEVER heard of La Gigante Meat Market.

And perhaps in the future when posting all new serious violent crimes, we should note the distance from Long Live.

Serious violent incidents (YTD) are circled to avoid confusing them with labeled landmarks (to include Long Live which is right in dead center). As you can see, it's a rough part of town. Until I came to this forum, I never understood that to be a disputable fact.

^ And if you just want to focus on homicides, see below. Four people have been murdered this year within blocks of there.

While I'm sure La Gigante Meat Market is a fine establishment, I'd guess it's probably not very well known.
