Well, almost had my brains splattered against the wall tonight...

Yeah, Saint Paul is just getting horrible. The other night when I sent my girlfriend home, right as we parked outside her house (near Dale and Thomas), these black dudes started yelling and cussing at these other black dudes. One of them seemed like they were grabbing for a gun in their shorts. It was getting pretty intense. A car flew past us, some dudes got out of the car and started yelling back. I thought they went back to the car to get a gun or something because that's what it looked like. But good thing they just yelled and drove off. The other group got into a car and just followed them. Luckily, we were in a car that had tints so I don't think they spotted us watching the whole ordeal. This was around 12-1 in the morning. The place is just getting worse.

My girlfriend tells me it's pointless to call the cops because by the time the cops get there, it's too late and they (cops) can't really do much about it from an incident like this. Good thing my girlfriend and her family is moving to Oakdale. She tells me that roughly 10 or so years ago, the neighborhood was safe and nice. From what I heard from an old friend is that a lot of the ghetto people from Chicago is moving here to Saint Paul, so it's no surprise that those people are causing more trouble here.
