This is like a joke to me. We have our share of crime, shady sides of town but from my experience I have always felt safe even when we first moved here and lived on "Crack Alley". Statistics can be deceiving but if Nevada wants to change her rating which is largely in part to Las Vegas there needs to be community lead programs to curb gang violence, parents need to start raising their kids, and start seeing her residents as the lifeblood of the city and not the tourists that raise all kinds of hell.<BR/><BR/>Keep the discussion flowing....Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03836716475835685334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-36729880905889636632007-03-25T18:29:00.000-04:002007-03-25T18:29:00.000-04:00That's very interesting.

So much for moral superiority concerning the sanctity of the intact family.Gunfighterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762432006297768871noreply@blogger.com
