I think when you click on the hyperlink icon and the box appears , clear the highlighted http:// out of the field , put your blinking line in that box and hit Ctrl and V this will paste it in place . Can't have 2 http:// 's so thats why I clear the highlighted one out first because a link will already have a http://

There are no Hmong or asians in Highland Park and no Polish residents. All the Polish live in Hamtramck. Highland Park is almost 100% Black and totally ghetto. 70% of the residents are on welfare. I know firsthand because I lived there and it was a nightmare. Since I am a big guy I never was victimized but women are victimized all the time. So there no asian gangs or any high profile gang activity. There are a lot of pimps and low profile drug kingpins that pay off the police

Highland park is not ghetto, i used to live there, my grandmother lives across the street from the house clint was in. The city is full of different people, rich, wealthy, poor, and disadvantaged. The Police department is new and cleaning the city up. The Blk Officer that said "Get them the **** out of here" at the end is Highland Parks real Chief of police.

Governors, mayors and judges live in highland park. The city is known for its historical homes. 99percent of the police in the movie are REAL sworn in Police officers in the city of Highland Park.

That video is horrible. I lived in Highland Park for 3 years from 1972 to 1975 on Glendale right on the park just off of Woodward. Took the bus to work downtown every day and up Woodward to Sears to shop. How sad to see what a mess it is now. Granted it wasn't a great area when I was there, but it was livable as long as you were careful. I finally moved out when some guy jumped out at me while walking to the bus stop one morning. Luckily, I was able to fight and get away. Pepper spray and high heels never hurt!
