    That’s pretty fuckin wild, but I believe it. Have gotten lost off 75 around Detroit and all of the burnt down homes and block boys weren’t too welcoming lol

    Got stopped by cops walking back to the room while staying in Philly, walking from a music festival with a female friend in little more than a bikini. We were told not to continue walking our intended route, they made us chill and hire a ride…

      I’ve lived in Philly for a while… it’s crazy how most of center city is safe, but walk into the wrong neighborhood…

        Bruh… in California, Southern California (Inland Empire) and Northern California (the Bay), you could be walking through a wealthy neighborhood, one street over and it’s the fkin hood and it legit looks like a fkin hood. I can’t even wrap my head around it. At least in SE Michigan, you can see the gradual change from wealth to knocking on death’s door. Or at least from my experience.
