    The city i have been living in for a while is Gainesville Florida. Now i first arrived here in 1987 to start school at the University of Florida. This town was awesome back then. We would does acid and walk around the streets and bar hop. You could smoke a joint anywhere you wanted with out getting harrassed. But all of that changed in 1990 when Danny Rolling a.k.a. The Gainesville Ripper started killing soroity girls and cutting off their heads. Well the city reacted by doubleing the police force because of one guy and now till this day there are about %200 more police then are needed in this town. So what do they do? They bust poor college students who havent done a damn thing. I have outstayed my welcome in this town! One good thing is when the Gators win a National Title the students go apeshit and fill the streets. The cops cant do a damn thing about it. I experienced 4 of these in my time in gville....3 of them in 12 months! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV2siM5bc7c&feature=related

    Yeah, so I've heard. One of my friends lives in Gainesville and she's been pulled over twice in the same morning just trying to walk to school due to 'suspicious' activity.

    If you're going to college there, I think that you're overdue for a transfer. The semester just ended, so I don't think you should have any problems moving to another Florida school.

    :D

    I was born and raised in Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada. For any of you who havent been there, its home to the largest open tar sand plant in the world. When I was a young it was a great place to grow up. The booming oil economy in our small town provided Fort McMurrays children with a quality of life unlike any other in Canada.

    Pretty much overnight the place started to turn into something else, everyone started wanting a piece of the pie. People immigrating from all over the world started making my town their home. Large quantities of Newfoundlanders also travelled west to my town, wich is now affectionatly called the capital of Newfoundland. Currently about half of the population of Fort Mcmurray are Albertan. Overpopulation, sky high house market, and a cost of living beyond most canadian citizens, INSANE traffic conjestion. Hells angels are rampant, selling coke left right and center, wich in turn tightens the police stranglehold. Gambling and drugs are now MAJOR issues most FortmcMurray residents have to deal with daily. The town I grew up in will never be what it once was, and I dont think I will ever call it my home again. The same can be said for alot of FortMac natives, they are all moving to calgary or edmonton, or onto unsoiled communities.
