ATTN: southside residers.....

[ahmonrah]

how bad is college park? i'm just wondering, it is safe for a white dude to be on OLD NATIONAL after dark? even with a group of known peers?

i mean, i'm just curious ;cause with all the new growth i've seen there and everything, compared to how it was when i moved here from illinois in '94 (there was a double murder in my subdivision the night we moved into it!), but according to what i see, and have seen it's not nearly as hood as it was.

just sayin, and be honest. 'cause i know white folks live there too. always have.

meets used to go on in the CP. so it cant be that bad......

[OneSlow5pt0]

i dont go to CP.......

[ahmonrah]

explain....
~getting dressed, heading to work~

because i dont go to the bad sections of griffin........for some reason the hood regions dont like my music or anything bout me......

[Lizbiz101]

Depends on what part of CP your talking about. I have fam near union city that part is not so bad. but Old national is CRAZY!!! almost every night I go over there there's an ambulance or a million cop cars SOMEWHERE on that street. I saw a dead body in the middle of the road one night......

[ahmonrah]

reallly? i've seen more dead bodies on peachtree street than old nat!?

[Lizbiz101]

Those weren't dead bodies you saw, those were homeless people.

[OneSlow5pt0]

lol

good point!well...i've seen those too. actually, i see them every night while at work. i once seen a crack-stitute give a trucker a BJIZZLE in some bushes by my building, so i'm like looking from the 3rd level parking deck and the tree canopy was blocking the action, but about 3 minutes later i see him strolling away, hands in his pocket, looking around trying to make sure no one seen him, then she walks out from the bushes with the crackhead walk(all mechanized, jerky and shat) looking down at her halter top trying to wipe something(HMMM!) off her shirt. then i heard her say "aint that some bullshyt!!" gawd that was.....stupid of him. he prolly got some god-foresaken multi-virus that turned him into a retarded, spore sneezing fungus monkey....oh well. hope he isnt married.

CP is straight

[KPowerEP3]

I'm not afraid to go to CP alone...but I'm not your average white boy either. Everyone tells me I'm dark on the inside.... I once dragged two preppy looking friends, one with a confederate flag tattoo into the 285 flea mart on glenwood just because I wanted to look for some speakers that I could get for $10 anywhere else for like $7

[Sledlude]

yep. cp and east point both get a bad rap but they aren't nearly as bad as ppl make them out to be. yeah there's crime but that just comes with being inside the perimeter. id say white ppl are straight pretty much anywhere here, unless you're wearing a klan hood or something.

Not true. There was one time I was absolutely scared to death in the hood, and the reason being was that I was being threatened because I WAS white.

You're no longer white?

[KPowerEP3]

You're no longer white?

don't argue semantics, dillhole.

[quickdodge®]

I wonder why that ***** didn't make it. Actually, it's quite obvious why. Later, QD.

[Grimm Reeper]

I didn't know that their were homeless people on Old Nat. I thought they all migrate to DeKalb Co. or Downtown Atlanta. Unless your talking about the J's on G Road (Godby for those who don't know). Well Old Nat is pretty long, it depends on what part your on. I'll say that the borderline is the Discount Mall heading towards the bridge and old movies theater. You should watch it back there after dark. After the Discount Mall heading towards Evander Holyfield's house is pretty safe at night. It's not a "Hood" environment over there, everyone just like to act like they're hard: Creel Road, Kimberly Mill, Bethesda Road.

I live just south of CP, its really not that bad. Old National isn't the greatest but I'd have more of an issue with the ****ed up area's of south atl, than CP. and I'm a 20 year old white dude from fayetteville. Then again my family is from the ****ty parts of athens and forest park so im really not concerned with "the hood"..No reason to be afraid unless your acting like a dumbass. or alone walking down the street or something. but in a group of people or in a car, your fine. USUALLY nothing's going to happen.

But I remember going to the sunday night southside meet a while back and some guy shot another guy in the neck and then just started sprayin bullets...that wasn't fun, everyone bailed like when the cops showed up in the fast and the furious.lol.

Wow, that was in Riverdale. I remember when Riverdale was a cool place to chill, meet friends and do whatever. In my opinion Riverdale is worst than College Park

lol yeah and from time to time I work in riverdale. I never though that parents would bring there kids into GNC to get Niacine just to pass a drug test. It happens atleast once or twice a day. ****s definitly gone down hill.

[OneSlow5pt0]

riverdale is worse than CP..............my friend used to live there,but they moved when i guy got murdered in there backyard

[Bballjamal]

I can't really compare any of the "inner" southside to say one is worse than the other. I'll say Everything's pretty grimey on the southside until you get into parts of fayetteville, all of peachtree city/Tyrone, parts of newnan, and on down. Otherwise, its pretty much the usual, "bad to some", on the southside.

O and..
Old Natty Discount Mall ftw


and x2 on what QD said. I knew he wouldn't show lmfao! Maybe it should go down in buckhead or somewhere peachy

[Slow Motion]

Old Nat L...is not bad its never been bad to me. But someone getting shot or hearing gunshots isn't unusual to me either as long as I keep the tooly nearby, so maybe my opinion isn't needed..lol. But its skraight, nothing to bad. J's be out, but you just got to watch your back just like anywhere else.

[ahmonrah]

my opinion as well.
old NAT and all of CP in general has never been bad, IMO.
now living on washington road from '95-'96?? that was bad....seen a dude throw out some change at a J that was on the sidewalk, some of it fell into the street and as the J went to pick it up, they caught a right fender to the skullet......the driver didnt even stop, and the J??

let's just say they looked like they ran a motorcycle through a TACOBELL at 100+......

[Dominikan521]

What's a "j"?

[Julio]

What's a "j"?

jay walker maybe? i dont know.

[con]

no worse than any other primarily black area surrounding Atlanta....then again if you're a coward or an over zealous prick, it could get ugly for you out there!!!

lolz...'J' as in junkie a.k.a. crackhead....

[ahmonrah]

con! what's good man?

[con]

you know how it is....the more things change, the more they remain the same...

[Grimm Reeper]

It's been a while since I've been in CP, but last time I went was with a couple of friends. We were at Mosely Park and we rode to Frozen Palace because that's where we go after we're done riding around ATL (bikes, motorcycles) to explain when I mean riding. So I'm posted in the FP parking lot and I see a damn flash from the side of my eye, I then noticed that they installed some damn camera at the intersection of Old Nat and Flat Shoals. I didn't believe that at first and then someone told me that its been that way for bout 1 year now. Then the opening of the new Wal-Mart, I remember when it use to be a Winn-Dixie or something I think and then it was the new 20 Grand a lot has changed since I was young.

[Lizbiz101]

damn tony....writing a book???

[Grimm Reeper]

Noooooooooooooooooooo!

[tony]
