I was in St. Louis in 1962. East St. Louis was a ‘no go’ zone...
and I was told why -— EXACTLY for the same reasons it is a
hell hole today. ...so, this is not new. I would venture to say
that taking the police out of that pit will not change the murder
rate one bit.

It’s been a hellhole since at least ‘62? When was it not a hellhole? 1870?

We moved to the St. Louis ‘burbs in ‘66. We all knew to never set foot in East St. Louis.
