@@csonracsonra9962 Things were more local back then more sense of community. Notice streets lined with cars people would talk in person more often.

[@damselnoir5905]

Fricking tragic, looking to relocate to a warmer climate and found a great house in Reidsville. Then I checked the crime stats and found you have a greater chance of being murdered in Reidsvilles than in NYC. So damn sad.

[@csonracsonra9962]

Yeah but you got admit it was only for the white people and that's what blacks today you need to realize that it's a good time for them and so we can get along but also our city officials need to be a hell to account for letting business go away and not incentivizing them to stay or come also not keeping our local community college up to date on the higher technologies that are needed
