In theirs. And the media? and school?
It's never a hate crime when it's black on white crime.

We need a Frank Serpico or Dirty Harry. Enough said.

At this point even ED-209 will suffice.

I was thinking more on the lines of Larvell Jones. He's a person of color.

Some more pesky kids just being kids.
Did we all think that Everybody wins, you all are victims, It's not your fault culture would not lead to this?

hmmm was there the day before. Everywhere I went during my trip, bad youths were there the next day making the news.

My observations from being up in Boston last week.
  • More graffiti and murals than I remember.
  • Certainly more homeless
  • Worse Road Conditions
  • Downtown wasn't its old self but getting close to it, I did notice vacant storefronts
  • More white people in Roxbury. I saw ~5 during my 4 days there, which is a lot for Roxbury but nothing like a Harlem...
  • Speed bumps in some of the 'inner city' areas
  • Nightlife seems to have recovered very quickly. I went to Good Life Bar and it was more packed than it was during my peak club days circa 2016/2017. All three rooms.
  • Lack of Gas Stations, every gas station is closing/being converted.
  • Tons of weed advertisements and talk, but maybe because I was up there on 4/20
  • Tourists are avoiding Downtown Crossing that's easy to see.
  • Newbury/Back Bay remains unchanged
  • Forest Hills Area doesn't feel vastly improved despite the removal of the Casey and the completion of all the New apartments
  • Apart from Seaport/Southie on Dot Ave and Egleston Square its visible that construction has slowed significantly over the last few years.
