4th installment! I'm going to have to add it to my collection of fine works of art. Along with my series of Cops, the best of South Florida.

Maybe the producer will do a series on rich surban white kids who want to be gangstas and listen to rap music like in that movie "Malibu's Most Wanted", now that would be funny. Enough of those around here...

Gangstas-N-Thugs is filmed exclusively in Palm Beach County. The producer's name is Raylo and he lives in Lake Worth.

Here's a sample of the video:


YouTube - GANGSTAS N THUGS 561

However, it should be interesting to know that Fort Lauderdale actually is the safest of the three major cities in South Florida.

The crime rates have gone up significantly in my area of Palm Beach County. It used to be much safer here than in Broward and Dade There's always random shootings here now. At the Boynton Beach Mall, a shooting. At the Palm Beach Mall, a shooting. At a random Public in the NICE section of Lake Worth, a shooting. There's always shootings!

To say that Fort Lauderdale is more dangerous than a major US city like Chicago is assanine.

Stay out of the bad neighborhoods and you will be fine.

People down here want to complain about the traffic and crime, but it is nothing compared to some of the major cities in the US. I think a lot of Florida residents have a poor perception of reality. They see a murder in a neighboring town and think they are living in the ghetto. There is crime and traffic everywhere...it's no worse down here than it is in other parts of the country.

Maybe we are just too close to the Bible belt where everyone is sheltered...

Or maybe it's the fact that Florida is the 8th most dangerous state out of the 50 in the nation.

Lauderdale is ranked as one of the top 50 most dangerous cities in the country, along with pompano beach, and soon to be deerfield. In the first 7 days and the new year, there was 7 murders. I can gurantee the murder count this year will nearly double. Also, because of the recent violence towards police, Broward has been nicked named "Cop Killer County". If you want to live in a safe city, stay out of Fort. Lauderdale (for the most part), Deerfield Beach, Oakland Park, Pompano, parts of Hollywood, Lauderdale Lakes, and Lauderhill. In Oakland Park, there have already been numerous robbery and drug related murders and assaults. In Fort. Lauderdale, the murders keep piling up, with drugs and gangs infesting the streets. In deerfield and pompano, rival gangs from the cities are killing each other in drive by shootings over turf, drugs, and money. Stay out west if your in Broward County. The east is not safe. The West Palm Beach mayor has noted South Florida as being the most "Corrupt and Dangerous" region in the country. South Florida in all is pretty much bad. I witness crime everyday. I have seen people get murdered, and I have known people who have lost their life to street violence. The east side of Broward County IS NOT SAFE.
Actually, according to a crime comparison website, this info is flat out wrong and bogus! True, there are areas in a narrow north-south corridor north of fort lauderdale that can be a little bumpy, but everywhere you go, there is always going to be some crime. The world is an imperfect place.

Gee, where is the poster who called people from the NE "soulless"? Looks like the red states lead in crime and divorce rates. The NE states seem to be pretty far down on that list.
