I used to deliver mail in the 'hood in Delray Beach where being a second away from getting shot wasn't unusual. There was a lot of tension between AA and Haitian gangs/drug dealers.

PIMking, a friend of mine is moving to Anniston, AL. Apparently it's a small town. If you get a chance, check out a book called Silent in the Land. Love those ancient live oak trees as well as the old houses!
I didn't know you lived in South Florida, I grew up on the good side of the state in Ft. Myers
