    I'm going to preface my next statement by saying I haven't been to Camden, NJ and I only drove through Detroit, MI once.

    BUT......

    In my experience, if you were going to give the United States an enema, it would go in through St. Louis. I absolutely hate that city.

    I've lived in 3 of the 25 most dangerous cities. Maybe they got uglier after I moved, because I don't remember them being all that bad.

    Then again...of course they got uglier after I moved. ;)

    If you're a QB for the Texans, Houston is definitely the most dangerous city in the country...

    It says a lot when somebody from Philly says your city is a sh!thole. :eek:

    j/k Diddy, I'm sure Philly is a nice place. *cough* :D

    Hey Philly is beating us on municipal WiFi. Thats something to be proud of. Better than synchonized traffic lights.

    That is the most stupid statement you could make. 3 out of 5 of the dangerous cities are also blue so big freaking deal. Its great how idiots can turn anything into a political pissing contest. Go back to the D&D moron.

    Whoa, lighten up Francis. He's either a) kidding or b) throwing me a bone. Either way, it was funny. :)

    In D.C., we just like to eliminate the unfit, and occasionally that included a President. It's all about evolution.
