You're asking me to prove that it's a ghetto? Good grief.
How about this: pretty much all of us here across the Potomac who have been to Baltimore think that your city is a ghetto. Hell, your entire state is a ghetto, according to Urban Dictionary (look at all the synonyms for "Baltimore": one of them is ghetto). Since the entire city can be considered a ghetto, any constituent part (including the area north of the business district, within city limits) is probably also a ghetto.
Now, as for what I saw, guess what? That's what I saw. And, honestly, Baltimore is a sketchy city. And yes, I did observe plenty of cars with missing windows covered over with plastic bags, graffiti, sketchy looking people, and increasingly rundown and sad looking buildings.
That's not rigorous proof but I think it's pretty indicative of the conditions in Baltimore.
Now, you chose to attack me personally (calling me a liar, saying that I am full of "$hit", and so forth) instead of trying to...oh, I dunno, convince me that perhaps Baltimore is not a ghetto. In doing so, all you did was reinforce my opinion that Maryland (with the exception of the Western and Southeastern counties) is a trashy state.
And, I will not dignify any more of your responses with posts, because I have better things to do than participate in pissing contests with Marylanders.
“I will not dignify any more of your responses with posts...”
Fine. You’re the one who lied about Balto. I have no use for you. Punk.
