I had to explain to the girl that Utah was right next to Nevada...Just to give her an idea.

Wow and another one with a complex she felt the need to actually cuss me...says a lot about you girlie
Well one can never accuse YOU of having self esteem issues! You really highly of yourself. (you shouldn't) You are an uneducated ignoramus. The post above and the other responses you have posted proves it. The absolute last thing any of us needs or wants is someone who is so full of her own self importance that she has declared herself the expert of the world. What's the matter? The people of England refuse to have anything to do with such a condescending snot? You know what I don't blame them.

I have lived in L.A. for 19 years. Crime is horrible, gangs are rampant (yes, even in Sherman Oaks. read the gang graffiti on any of the many construction projects). Gangs number 80,000 in L.A. Cops number 10,000. Total. That includes off duty, desk clerks etc. Do the math. There is massive illegal immigration. Nobody respects the English language. If you complain about it you are considered racist.I'm leaving in September and will be happy to do so.

My late grandma would say "consider the source".

Yup that's me the brightest and hottest so don't argue with me 'cause you just aint up to scratch.

Now go knock yourself out with the knowledge that I'm ALL THAT and then some. Show a little respect when you address me. You are in the presence of greatness.

Seriously, you need to get out of LA...you are waaaay to tense.

you are considered racist, because you are right. And these people can't argue with you when you tell the truth. So out comes the race card, That's all they have and that's not much.
glad you are getting out of Los Angeles. After the hassle of the move is over I think you'll find it's the best thing you ever did.

My wife and I have lived in Northeast Los Angeles for twenty years. We did have a car stolen about 10 years ago- it wasn't in the garage and the street was not well-lit, we have since gotten a motion-sensitive light. As far as gangs, nothing. Funny thing is the media keeps telling us we are surrounded by gangs. We aren't the kind of people who stay at home per se: we shop on North Figueroa, take the train into town, etc so it isn't like we aren't out there. I wouldn't have imagined problems like that in Sherman Oaks.
Just goes to show.

I don't think you are racist. I'm sorry you had such a rotten experience here.
