You can see yours by clicking on your user cp. You give rep by clicking the justice scale on the top right corner of the post you want to rate.

BTW I said Gangsta because Watts is one of the worst cities in Los Angeles. I grew up in Gardena one city over from Watts. My grandparents lived in Watts(they later moved to Gardena) during the Watts riot in the early 60's. And the Rodney King riot came within two blocks of thier house

Watts WAS a bad city. They are converting parts of Watts, Boyle Hieghts, and Pico-Union District (where I'm from) to that whole "it used to be ghetto now lets make lofts" type deal. Lot of change since the 90's in Watts, about 95% Latino these days (what isn't LOL) and crime has gone waaaay down. I have some decent pics of the Towers, along with some bad ass shots of East LA. I'll see what I can pull up, good shit :goodjob:

I left Cali when I was 16, back in 1990. I went back for two weeks in 1991 and have never been back since. As many people on here that rant and rave about how great Cali is, I could honestly care less if I ever step foot back in that state ever again. People really underestimate how good Georgia is, I left and went to Myrtle Beach for 13 months and came back because of the pay scale and low cost of living.

GA is good for a lot of things, bad for a lot of things too. I'm not really a "pro GA" dude, but I live here, so I dont complain about it. I go to Cali every few months, I was out there in July to catch some Dodgers games, hang w/ my homeboys. its good shit out there, but I'm glad I am here in GA- you live a totally different life out west. Nothing like the opportunities that are out here in Ga, the jobs, the homes, the peace. But then theres nothing like a West Coast party, the clubs, the women, the CARS, weekends are ALWAYS off the hook, you are always into something and who knows where you might see Salma Hayek or Jessica Alba (try 3rd St in Santa Monica, seriously) Each state is good in their own ways. As for me, I will probably transfer with my job in a few years and end up living in socal once again. I miss it.

Ga has been good to me and the only thing that held me to Cali was my grandmother(she passed away in 92). I dont put anyone down for wanting to live wherever they want to live, to each his own. I just find it funny how many people say "My life sucks here, so Im going to move to Cali". As if they are going to step off a plane and into a 7 figure salary and a house in Malibu.

LOL yea I dont see that happening. If you aint hustlin you better have something setup for you, opportunity isnt as abundant as the palm trees out there... unless you sellin oranges!
