I’m going to be completely honest, I don’t even know what the hell a “homer” is to be honest, yet y’all keep slinging that term around… I’m guessing it’s some made up city data buzz word.
Anyway, as I said before the triad needs to do better as a whole, some of y’all need to remove the rose tinted glasses and face reality. Both GSO and WS need help, and so far 2021 is proof of that.
Recently, I unfortunately had an old friend/class mate who was shot and killed in Winston, so please save all of your petty arguments for someone else, I am still grieving, yet y’all over here acting like it’s sunshine and rainbows and nothing bad EVER happens outside of Greensboro.
Who the hell said nothing bad ever happens outside of Greensboro? You people love to invent arguments that were never made. The point is if anyone dares to say anything that isn’t positive about Greensboro you and others immediately respond with some comment about how some other city is worse and it’s usually Winston. I’m sorry about your friend but that has nothing to do with what we are talking about.

This was the same ******* that used to refer to himself as GSOCitizen that made up stories just to have something to post on here, and then when confronted with his lies, changed his name to this Yinyang crap.
I've never disparaged Winston Salem on this or any other board, so don't lump me in that group. There is such a thing as the ignore button, it comes it handy if one doesn't want to see posts from certain people. I do wish there was more news about Winston on here, but oh well.
The Greensboro vs Winston-Salem sniping on the forums is similar to the Charlotte vs Raleigh sniping. It seems like the arguments get nastier with Greensboro vs Winston-Salem though for some reason or another. Winston-Salem posters for the most part have abandoned all Triad urban forums on the internet and they have their own site WSTB.

I would be sketptical of anything that he says.
….Hold the hell up, this man has officially lost his mind if I think you just called me what I think you did…
Never ceases to amaze me how folks leave one place and are suddenly qualified to "shape up" their new location. And the place they left is suddenly the cradle of civilization And why do people believe that the best way to influence is to adopt a condescending attitude, proclaim things are better where they are from, and infer the people they are trying to influence are short on intelligence and lack class? I also note that these same people think its everyone else's job to fix things. Lastly, said people seem to think it best to rant on City-Data versus simply returning to where they came from

This thread is about about crime in Greensboro being "through the roof", and by virtually any metric, it is. The gun violence and homicide rates in particular are absolutely apalling. Winston is comparable. Any further debate between the two is simply the fight of fools in a burning house. And I'll let you in on a little secret. Convincing those from outside to leave isn't the answer. It's giving them a reason to stay. Folks in most successful cities understand the benefit. The prevailing mindset of insularity remains a serious impediment to the economic growth of either city.
I’ve gotten stupid PM’s as well. They just can’t help themselves. I haven’t posted a single negative thing about GSO on this board but heaven forbid if you push back when they incessantly make comparisons between GSO and other cities that always paint the other city in a negative light.
