Is it just me, or is this whole world spinning completely out of control? Just here in Salisbury, it seems as if there is a murder or very violent crime nearly EVERY day! When I moved here 20 years ago, this was a fun, friendly little town with a lot to offer. The school system at the time was doing a pretty good job, crime was much lower, and it seems to me that it was just a much better place to live. I now have two small children, and just as soon as I can I am getting my family the hell out of here! Take a look around - trash of all sorts (both the refuse and human kind) abounds, and it seems like you just can't go anywhere without running into people just acting in an ugly manner to anyone around them! I seriously don't think that anything can be done to fix this. The economy is hurting all of us, but this region in particular is just going right down the tubes!
