Go big or go home

Baton Rouge has a higher violent crime rate than New Orleans.

I see what's going on. Murder and rape happen a lot more in NOLA but robberies, burglaries, theft, etc rates are higher in Atlanta.

Our criminals aren't as evil as yours.

So, ATL isn't quite - probably more dangerous than NOLA, but isn't in the same conversation when it comes to character.. NOLA is worth the risk. There isn't another place like it on earth. ATL to me is meh at best.

Pretty sure rape is measured differently. Rapes and murders tend to be more segregated into particular areas than other types of crime.

No, but it's not everyone's cup of tea. Atlanta's not either. NOLA would be about 30th on my list of places just in the US to visit.

Vegas isn't just gambling but gambling does make it even better. Vegas has a litany of things to do that don't require gambling.

I've been twice for work and I hate it. Overpriced, cheesy, I don't gamble, there's nothing for 100 miles around it, and loud.

Well, I like some of those but I also enjoy feeling like Oceans 11 in all the hotels. And they have great pools, tons of alcohol, GREAT food and just all kinds of general debauchery.

Idk, count me as a fan even if every time I go I come back zeroed out

How much of the day did you work? And I have friends who don't gamble but love it. It's like adult spring break. Outside of how expensive it is I can't think of a ton of issues.

But I also get it being loud. It's definitely loud. But I kinda like that

St. Louis always gets screwed in these stats.

If we included surrounding areas like Chicago does we wouldn't be near the top.

Vegas is the epitome of our inverted reality.

A city in the middle of the desert with water fountains shooting hundreds of feet in the air, while others drink water out of mud puddles. Endless buffets while others go starving. Sex without love.

Vegas was the shite even when I went at age 14 with my dad. It has only gotten better as I have aged.
