i second that but you know it never fails for some who have less than others are creative..with words and many different things to get by. so maybe its considered if you make something out of nuthing. like using foil on the tv to get a pic or mayo sandwhiches and sugar in grits cause theres no salt

hmm ghetto could be like ..just One group of people or area..or I think it could be where theres alot of homeless people or low class communities.. or just basically the word "poor" comes in mind...and where everything is just old and never rebuilt and broken down and everythingz shitty?..hmmm my 2 cents?..o and lotta violence n shit like that. EDIT **i'll had major sex Acts and drugs 2 this..later.

Tasuki_Civic
08-29-2005, 07:10 PM
nah ghetto i dont see violence at all ( lol well theres about as much violence in tha ghetto and tha sub's its jus that the burbs hide it more and eep it in their own home.................homless pple ( it aint all like that) they are usually downtown) why would they be in tha ghetto with pple who dont have that much money. thats a pretty stupid homelless person. but lower class pple making ends is all.

Any projects/ghettos in metro Atlanta for that matter. The "ghetto" doesn't really exist anymore in most places in GA. Places that I personally KNOW are still ghetto:

*Englewood area near the Atlanta Zoo.
*Some parts of Decatur (not Dekalb, the city Deactur)
*Certain spots on Metropolitan Ave (formerly Stewart Ave)
*Dill Avenue
*University Avenue near downtown Atlanta
*Near the Boulevard. No lie, my little cousins middle school played against this middle school called Cowen. The area and school is SOOO poor. The kids didn't even have uniforms. They had on really run down shoes with holes. Their official cheerleaders didn't have uniforms either. They had on black t-shirts and blue jeans. LOL Now THATS GHETTO.

Are you serious? Metro, Dill, University, were all on my route at Bud. I rolled on those blocks. You got to include Thomasville Heights and surrounding areas in that. I few months ago when an IA member had his car stolen and word got to him that it was in the exact areas you posted. I was down there from 11pm that night til past 2am just ridin through. I have all kinds of people down there that have my back. I've had a gun on me twice at McDaniel Glen. I have no problem in those areas. And I'mma Saltine. Lolol. Later, QD.

Yes, I am very serious. I know of at least 10 people killed on Dill Avenue alone. I even posted a story not too long ago about my Ex and I that had to go deal with some dudes on Dill that held his niece hostage. I mean, its never like someone patroling the streets, walking around with guns, like Jonesboro South used to be (if you ever heard of that)

I don't think that anyone is just going to come up to you and just kill you or whatever. They are just very troubled areas. You can LOOK at someone wrong and get into a confrontation.

I know you said "I'mma saltine" but believe it or not, alot of blacks ARE scared when a white person comes around. Never mind the fact that you may be in a big ass Budweiser truck. They will still think, "he still the white man" They not gonna bother you unless they felt the need to rob you. Honestly, if I saw a white man in my neighborhood thats 99% black, riding around at 11pm-2am at night, I would think he is a spy, police, Feds, whatever. I wouldn't bother him either. LOL

^^ Bankhead isint really that bad man.
when did it change? have you watched the news latley? around july 4th throwing firecrackers at a tanker truck (real smart) it crashes and they beat the dude down and rob him... not that bad wtf! and over on boatrock bolton road what ever it is back up in there couple of years ago a father had his kid try to break into my car at the time. the kid was gonna break my window after he checked all the doors to see if unlocked with a brick when i came out the kid ran to his father in the next apt over came out the door like i was doing something to his kid the kid starts laughing and the father reaches for something behind the door im in my car at this point and the guy tries runs up on me with a bat which at that point he met Mr.Glock which put thing into perspective for him real quick..of course my friend comes out the apt at this point claming that he wouldn't do that when their house got broken in twice in the same month... a couple of weeks later that very same guy and his son was arrested for bugulary.
so its gonna take a lot of convincing that it aint all that bad!

Thats just those people. That don't make ALL if bankhead bad. See how I narrowed down mines to the exact area. Hell, Bankhead is a long road.

Take Cascade for instance. Its one of those long roads. My grandmother lives in a house off Cascade Ave. She has been there about 30yrs. Bought the house back then for 10K and the property value is now close to 300k. Most of my black ppl, know that part of Cascade (WestEnd Mall part) is/was a bad area but the fact is that aside from that part of Cascade, as you go on down the road, and pass over i-20, it cleans up. There are some million dollar houses on Cascade.

lol you crazy who told you that? i dont mind goin down there but at certain times you dont have no business being sown there. thats one place i make sure i dont go at night. pple dont play down there. in tha swats is where its at. but atlanta compared to anywhere else in tha U.S like cali and ny aint shit. thats jus my opinion


kinda retarded.. since in a crime to population ratio (crimes you actually witness.. or suffer) is alot bigger in atlanta than New york or L.A., i think New Orleans, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, and atlanta are the worst right now, i've even heard this on the news.. and lets face it.. chances are their research is superior to yours

yes.. bankhead hwy is long.. but when people say bankhead they are refeering to the area directly west of atlanta.. shit campbellton road stretches out into the redneckville, its only the East point area thats actually bad (area sorrounding Sylvan rd)

I know where Jonesboro South is. Had a homeboy that lived in there. I don't go there in my Bud truck(not at that hour). When a dude, tatted up , wearing a LONG BEACH cap rolls through the way I have, you don't think spies and shit. Spies don't want to make theirselves that known. Later, QD.

ghetto is using anything to survive i guess ..

example you need ink ??

get paper and burn it in a can let it ash untill you have like 3 or 4 inchs of ash ..

pour in some water lil by lil until it becomes like a paste like base ..

den add a lil more to make it into a liquid ..

then you have your self some ink ..

another example :

if you live in the ghetto your windows all have bars to protect yourself from robbers ..
