i love telling people about the rough places near where i live, it's great. i live in plymouth, MA, thats right, pilgrims, indians, thanksgiving, blah blah blah. the rock and the big ship and whatnot. that's cool, but plymouth sucks. it used to be nicer than it is now like ten or fifteen years ago, but every year it just gets worse and worse. opiates, primarily percs and heroin, and guns are the two main themes in this town. pot, too, and i dont mean teenage kids walking around puffing on joints, i mean there are major drug dealers in plymouth that sell fuckin large amounts of weed.
plymouth is bullshit. a kid at a party emptied a whole clip of hollow tipped bullets into two other kids over a beer a couple months ago, one died and one is paralyzed. ive seen a kid get his head stomped in. theres stabbings all the time, people fight with baseball bats, its stupid. i got robbed at gunpoint in a stop and shop parking lot in broad daylight.
plymouth is divided into sections, basically, each one treated as its own area. West Plymouth, Downtown, North Plymouth, Chiltonville, and South Plymouth (which is divided into Manomet and Cedarville). There are also two low income communities that stand on their own called Mayflower Village and Algonquin Heights. mayflower and algonquin used to be the only really bad parts of plymouth before it got like this, but now North is the worst, and south plymouth is awful, cedarville being worse than manomet. and every neighborhood is bad for the same reasons. kids start doing drugs, kids start selling drugs, they get guns, everyone wants to prove theyre tough and gangsta and what not, and they do things first without thinking of the consequences. and if they dont end up fucked by the end of their teenage years, they just become addicts and bums as they get older.
I myself have a drug problem, but i'm getting help and i'm going to get the fuck out of this town one day and its going to be sweeeet
