As a locksmith servicing camden day & night, i wince whenever I get a camden call. Sometimes the customers are genuinely insane or actively on hard drugs. Had people ask me to break into government buildings, stand in my way of leaving while they have a drug fit, people scream at me high out of there mind. People either refuse to pay, demand 80% off or literally take their keys and drive away before paying. I’ve heard someone on a phone call find their car broken into live and start crying, watched relationships fall apart from drugs while I’m changing locks. All the evictions where everyone on the block is staring at you because they know the tenants. I’ve left my van unlocked once for 3 minutes and had $200 stolen. You can’t take your eyes off your tools for a second of it’ll be sold out of someone’s trunk the next night. Always have to be on alert and not act stupid.

Oh yeah & I just drive thru neighborhoods there like Charlie bo I didn’t exactly “get out of the car” other than after we parked in the waterfront aquarium parking lot only to get denied admission after the lady at the gate took out $10 parking or whatever. I got to call out the parking lot lady & my girl (from upstate nj) who was in Iraq (in army) goes “___ this is not the type of city to do that in.. just let it go”. Then I think she wanted to joy ride around Camden & gps sucked back then.. went down that main east west st & then how tf do you get on ben Franklin bridge so we can tour Philly which was the plan! Oh crap now we can’t then left onto the bridge & now are in north Philly Cooper point under the bridge etc. like that dudes post atop quoting Chris rock “u no your not in a good neighborhood when no one is working during the day & everyone is just hanging out”… in this case … some of them strapped (dope boys on the stoop) watching their junkies & the streets. Look for the vid on the William rand bus Depot where 2 homeless guys sum canden up.. everyone in south jersey gets their drugs here than goes back to their suburb etc..

There are countless places across the United States where you can walk your child without there being a real possibility of them being shot down. No higher than the chance of getting stabbed or robbed in England. This was just a man that grew hatred for the United States. If you can settle in England, you can easily settle anywhere outside a major US city and your chances will be the same as anywhere else in the world. That's reality. The American Dream is VERY real and still exists, it's all about YOU that decides whether you'll live it or not. This country still floods with immigrants who build successful businesses and make more money than the average White American. It's likely their own perseverance after knowing real struggle and acquiring a major opportunity in the land of the free that they succeed in acquiring the American Dream - as many Irish once did.

[@markvogel5872]

The culture of black people in this country is sadly one that is very dangerous to their success. Being educated is being white thus it's discouraged. Taking care of your surroundings and being respectful is looked down upon. When your government is lying to you and telling you you are a victim who needs their support to survive and everything is against you no wonder people fall into despair. It's like a drug user mentality because it's so easy to shift blame onto everything else and it's hard to admit that you are the problem. They want to glorify materialism and the appearance of wealth without actually learning about how to generate wealth. The other huge issue is single parent house holds. Family and education are the main ways other groups who historically have struggled have been able to escape the problems and become successful.

I haven’t been to Camden in a minute. I used to slide through there regularly when I-95 had that weird kink in it. If coming from Philly, I would cross the Ben Franklin Bridge and then work my way over to NJ 73 and the NJ Turnpike. I would try different routes and explore Camden in those times. Now, I can just stay on 95 directly through NE Philly and pick up the old 276 / PENNA Turnpike back over to Jersey and NYC. It took years to fill this gap in 95, with a simple set of ramps between 95, 276, and onto the NJ Turnpike. If coming from DC/MD, you can bypass the whole area by crossing over at the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

Camden is basically little Philly

[@markvogel5872]

For everyone talking about the cars looking nice. Yes...the cars are nice because certain groups of people put more value into a car (which loses it's roi immediately after driving off the lot) as opposed to assets that can actually make you better off (like property and stocks) so yes you will often see a nice car in shit areas. Same reason they wear "designer" brands and drink expensive liquor. Materialism is fully encouraged yet fiscal responsibility is not.

[@echohotel4963]

[@markvogel5872]

Right....because if this was anywhere else in the world people without money or with limited money would be spending it on more important things like food or tools for their jobs or education. Getting a loan to take a car that costs more than the value of the home you are renting just to appear well off is a very stupid thing that some people like to do.

[@JamesCook76131]

How do you know they aren't investing in the local real estate? How do you know they haven't paid off their homes? Why do you assume they're strapped for cash? You don't know anything about these people except how they look and how the facades in the neighborhood look.

I've known plenty of poor people in my life who still keep their lawns clean of litter and make their areas look nice. These videos are all labeled as being the "hood" which is a very specific term.

[@slgordon3]

That’s a good question for sure. I try to put myself in the shoes of a kid growing up in Camden. These people are dirt poor, the schools are terrible, there are few role models, and the drug trade is everywhere, literally right outside your door. The power of drugs is so strong in these hoods, it pulls the youngsters in-both in terms of making quick money, and also just using the drugs. The kids get sucked in and start getting arrested, criminal convictions, etc. Once they’re there, there’s little to help them pull themselves out. Again, bad schools, few role models, bad parents. The cycle just continues. There are people that break free but they tend to be exceptionally strong and driven. I’m not making any judgments here, this is just my understanding as someone who was raised in Philly.

[@shutup2751]

i live in ireland but same situation, lots of people who grew up in the dirt poor slums of dublin in the 70's and 80's are now some of the most powerful criminals in europe worth probably billions, the power from the narcotics trade is like an addiction themselves, many are addicted to the power it brings

Camden NJ political notes: 1) The municipality is governed via a Mayor-Council method as described via the Faulkner Act. The Faulkner Act is a NJ specific piece of legislation that provides a variety of governing models to choose from. Almost 80 municipalities in NJ utilize the Mayor-Council arrangement which provides the Mayor large power. The mayor in Camden has 5 council members. 2) Camden has not elected a republican mayor since Frederick Von Nieda in 1935.

People have a different value system and understand that, but what gets me is that some would rather settle for that than say, go into the military. I would go, get everything that I could, such as money for school, and get out. Anything to get away from what I see in this video. I am not speaking hypotheticals but facts. That's what I did. Granted, where I am from wasn't as bad as Camden, but it would rob you of motivation and the desire to want better if you allow it. I left and haven't looked back and, yes, life is now better: college graduate, good job, stable life, bright future, not rich and likely never will be, but I am okay, don't want for anything, and don't have to ask anyone for anything.
