A&M board: "What would it take to get Frank Martin?"

[ansoncock]

Have lived in Cola. I now live back in my home town of Spartanburg. I travel across both North Carolina and South Carolina. I work out of our Charlotte office. I still love Columbia, my wife still loves Columbia. Outside of Raleigh, Chappel Hill, Durham and Charlotte go 1 mile in certain directions and you find yourself in blighted communities.Heck, even Asheville as beautiful as the area is there is community blight. Just a fact! You can always drive through those areas blight and make it out to be a S---Hole city.

No matter how blighty an environment our cities may SEEM to be, and in some cases, actually be, there is normally a sewer system which in theory keep the local environment relatively safe from bio hazards. Therefore, most American cities cannot be truthfully designated s$&@hole cities.

Granted that in some of the cities the fecal threat presented might pale in comparison to other threats you are more likely to encounter which are more immediate and deadly.
