Incredible story here. And very, very depressing for anybody who still has hope for the hopeless situation that is California (RIP). (Think "Zimbabwe". And flee like the wind.)

I grew up in the LA suburbs and went to college in San Diego. California is a beautiful place and I don't mind earthquakes. But I'll NEVER live there again.

I visited Ohio one summer and was completely shocked by the fact that people are friendly. It was an amazing thing. I've lived in Maine, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maryland and Ohio. I HATE snow and fear tornados. But California just isn't worth it.

You can't beat that down to earth, Ohio friendliness. No big city madness there, that's for sure!

CINCINNATI - The mayor declared a state of emergency and announced a citywide curfew as riots over the police shooting of an unarmed black man stretched into a fourth day yesterday.

Only people going to and from work will be allowed on the streets between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., Mayor Charles Luken said.

"Despite the best efforts of the good citizens of our city, the violence on our streets is uncontrolled and it runs rampant," Luken said at a news conference at City Hall.
