Did I say this state was perfect and free of crime? No, am I saying it’s better with crime compared to other states, perhaps a bit yeah. Am I biased? Perhaps, I’ve been around to a few states but never lived in any. So what’s your point? To point out it’s not as great as it looks because I’m not saying that. I’m saying I appreciate this state and everything it has to offer even with its shortcomings, cons and all

Everywhere has it’s pros and cons but hey glad you’re glad to be here like some of us are.!

Hahaha it feels that way sometimes.

Also I’ve never heard anyone call it Rude Island. That’s funny lol

On behalf of this post, thank you.

Sheesh, sorry you’ve met some mean people. We’re not all like that. I won’t disagree with you, we are not the most nicest bunch, I think that we tend to mind our business more so. Could be wrong on that though. I’ve had people tell me they never know their neighbors compared to when they are in other states

We have! But I do like Massachusetts and it’s residents and jobs, I like both states!

That sucks, hope you find somewhere you do feel that way about.

Glad the last 34 years have been good to you at least. We’re still here kickin’

Where do you live now?

I work in Massachusetts because jobs here don’t pay enough so hey, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. There’s more than just the wacky crime that goes on elsewhere that I’m thankful for.

Dude I just heard that LA had a tornado, fucking LA! They already have earthquakes! Could not imagine living in tornado alley or anything like that but if we were to have a tsunami here or hurricane we would be super fucked.

Will not disageee with you there whatsoever.

Hell fucking yeah dude

100% poverty does breed crime. I’m thankful to be in a fortunate lucky spot but this state does have a high rent problem among other things but I’m thinking on the positives. Hopefully these things do get better. For everyone.

I won’t disagree on that, there definitely is. Crime is definitely on a lesser scale here compared to other states, at least I think so. Maybe I’m just seeing things through rose colored glasses.

I can imagine, while yes we do have our crimes and even weird crimes and such, still. Still thankful I live in this state. It’s not perfect but it’s good.
