C-O, Tha 614, Buckeye City...Columbus, Ohio
|
Posted By: Ashlee Dickson on February 07, 2006 Columbus is getting be to be really crazy! We used to just be the capital of Ohio, and we'd have a homicide every now and then, but that was years ago. Now, a new person is being shot every day. We've already at least 50 to 60 murders, and let's not start on the rapes and robberies. I love my city, it's what made me who I am, but this isn't the same city I grew up in. I've tried to adapt, but I shouldn't have to. I shouldn't have to get used to burying people that I went to school with or hung out with on the weekends, I shouldn't have to be used to parties and clubs letting out early because someone decided to fight, or shoot someone. I can't even walk up the street without mace or a bopper, just in case some crazy person decides they want to try me. I hate it. Sometimes, I love going out of town, but when I get back, I love it too. If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
