I lived in Pittsburgh, Antioch, Bay point, Oakley, for fifteen years. And the neighborhood I wasn’t worried about, only noisey,cop caller’s, CFS, haters. That’s why me and my ride/die crew tow it up out there. The police out there are really dangerous and slaughter black and Mexican. Ain’t cool. They killed my husband.

Ti Carolyn, first off your spelling and punctuation are terrible. How can you live in Pittsburg and still not spell it correctly. Second, what do you have as proof that the police “slaughter” people?

That area went to he** the day it was built. The first real slum in Antioch. I bought in there in 73 and sold it as fast as I could. It was nothing but pre section 8 and the police were busy.
