re: Huntsville ----- thoughts on the city and surrounding area

Aaaaand we have reached the part where Stomp says that black neighborhoods have the lowest crime and the best schools and if you post a fact disputing his lies, you are racist.

Seriously, stomp, why not just work to fix the problems instead of lying? What the hell is wrong with you?

I've actually been on the front lines working to make this community safe since the 1990s. And we've made a lot of damn good progress, including finally running out a derelict councilman and school board member who were just fine letting NW HSV rot while the rest of the city flourished. We pushed for not only improved infrastructure and increased development, new homes are being built, and a we've improved community/police relationships.

The area is much safer than it used to be. Is it crime free? No...no where is, regardless of what anyone believes. But I understand that perceptions last longer than realities. The tired, outdated idea of this area being disproportionately crime-riddled is just that...tired and outdated.
