Part of me wants to watch because it was actually quiet most of the weekend. The other part knows I better not
After the last couple nights, I'm about ready to move. Already in talks with my boss about carrying while on property when I get my CWP.
I was driving by when it all happened. I took a screen shot of my car. We had 3 shootings that day, 2 yesterday, and then another today 2 blocks away from where I work
It ain't even that bad. This is what happens when you add hundreds of thousands of people to a population during a season.
I had cops at the resort today dealing with a trespassing situation and they even said it's been crazy. I'm not scared anything will happen, I just don't want to get caught in a situation where I can't do anything if I need to.
I get everything going on and I honestly feel no less safe now than I was 2 yeas ago when I moved away or 9 years ago when I moved here. I feel the same as I did living in a larger city and people need to face that MB is growing every year and is one of the fastest growing area. That brings great and horrible things.
Our police force is also severely understaffed and under paid. Our city council and mayor is a joke though. Those things improve the quality of life gets better.
Yeah I don't feel any more or less safe than I did before any of this happened. I'm glad MB is growing as fast as it is, but at the same time the city needs to do a lot of clean up. They started talking about it about a month ago at city council meetings. I agree the police force needs to be paid more but I also believe there's not enough money you could pay me to do that shit either.
But their pay is so shit that you can more in almost every other industry in the area so they lose good cops to other areas. Our police force is way too small for the size of area and the number of calls. If you fix that and audit where the money is going I think we are an instant change.
Honestly not trying to talk shit when I ask this, but who are all these people moving to Myrtle Beach? Like I don't think I've ever heard someone express a desire to live there.
Take your cuntiness somewhere else to http://www.postandcourier.com/news/...cle_01330b02-0f3a-11e7-8f1f-efcef79d468d.html
Honestly tons of people are moving to the area and shockingly more and more to the "suburbs" of MB if there was such a thing. Longs/Carolina Forest/ Conway and between are really growing for whatever reason. I'm not even going to pretend that MB is an amazing place and that everyone needs to live here. However I really don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. Not everyone is white trash or on drugs or some sort of degenerate.
Yeah I live in the cheap part of Market Common in the old Air Force base housing and it's filled with almost entirely retirees with houses going up for and selling on a daily basis. People are coming in and then the a lot of Coastal grads are actually staying close to area now too.
Lots of yankees. Guy from work who already lived down there was moving last year and had to store all his shit in Georgetown because all the storage units in MB area were full with people moving in.
Lots of people have family who vacation there. Lots of beaches. Dirt cheap housing. A large transplant community to make it feel more like home. The fact that the airport is doing a lot more good/cheap flights is also a big factor imo bc it makes it easier for all these people to travel or go back home to visit.
Pretty huge news re:nuke plant in Fairfield County getting scrapped http://www.thestate.com/news/local/article164544862.html
Seriously? Have you ever been to Myrtle Beach? There are hundreds of thousands of people from Ohio that would move this second if given the opportunity. Dumb question
He has balance issues. It's a serious medical condition and we do not appreciate you making light of the situation.
i didn't even bother to turn the sound up, i just assumed the video used Cat Scratch Fever. i'm legitimately embarrassed for anyone that took part in making that video.
clemson just doesn't have any funny fans. the Dabo fan-fiction is the funniest thing a fan has ever done and that was unintentional.
I don't even know why Clemson fans still talk shit to us. It's like talking shit to ECU fans or something. Like why are we still even in your head? Kinda weird
I'm saying that we just don't even seem relevant to you at this point. Like, we're probably the worst team on your schedule. Talking shit to us at this point just seems odd. But, hey, what do I know, I think we should end the series, so that tells you where I stand.
Was reading about the history of the term sandlapper, and found some great quotes: "We thought we had found in the Georgia 'cracker' the lowest substratum of human society, but he was bright intelligence compared to the South Carolina 'clay-eater' and 'sand-hiller.'" (John McElroy, Andersonville: A Story of Rebel Military Prisons) "In Congress on Feb. 10, 1875, a black representative from South Carolina had kind words for many whites, whom he described as 'noble-hearted, generous-hearted people.' Others he spoke of as 'the class of men thrown up by the war, that rude class of men I mean, the "tar-heels" and the "sand-hillers," and the "dirt eaters" of the South – it is with that class we have all our trouble." (Jack Claiborne and William Solomon Price, Discovering North Carolina: A Tar Heel Reader, Published 1991) "A strange specimen of the feminine gender came in just before we were called to breakfast. She was a regular piney-woods sand lapper with three tallow-faced bloodless looking squalid children. She stood up boldly with her back to the fire and entered freely into the general conversation. She had a respectable quid of the weed (ie, chewing tobacco) in her mouth. This she mastigated freely and upon turning to the fire ejected the juice with a genuine masculine grace." (Unpublished journal of a faculty member from the Medical College of the South Carolina Before the Civil War, crackers were often called 'sandlappers,' because their children 'contracted the habit of eating dirt.' This 'habit,' now known to be a symptom of hookworm infection, has by no means disappeared." (Stetson Kennedy, Palmetto Country)
