I was raised in South Providence right next to one of the biggest street gangs (Harriet),
and i want to give you guys insight, the south and west end is really ****ed up,
and i really aint notice until i became friends with dudes in cranston,
its cool to be in a gang in providence, and most of my family took that route,
of drug dealing and gang banging, three of my friends been gunned downed in three years,
people are getting shot weekly here, robbings every few days ,
alot of the crimes even if you call the cops don't get reported,
my cousins house got shot twice in two weeks and the police didn't care,
they just collected the bullets and never went back or called back,
and about three months ago i went to get junk food at the corner store,
and dude robbed me and people were laughin at it and recording it,
this **** is so ****ed up , some people over here just leave they pistol on the edge of they porche,
and want to shoot or fight for the dumbest reason,
if you stare at a dude they will confront you and jump on you,
but i've seen improvement, back then when i was little growing up in my child hood house,
there was bearly any houses in my block, alot were burned down ,
abandoned, and some were just fields, and shootings were way too frequent,
there still is alot of crack going around the city, and alot of the youth is ****ed up,
im saying 10 year olds are getting caught with weapons,
