The Most Dangerous City You Have Been To?

As I have said in eariler posts I took a temp job with FedEx delivering packages, This bottom link is of a driver who was kidnapped about 3 weeks ago but the hood he was working is concidered one of the nicer areas of Chicago.

A couple of weeks ago we had a shooting at our Bedford park terminal.

As for me I was at the terminal that morning but no where the action (dodged a bullit)

As for Bad hoods they I given me a route several times delivering in the Englewood neighorhood of Chicago(Southside) Its one of the top 5 worst places in the country theres shootings all day everyday. bangers on every other corner. I will leave that neighorhood before dark and dont care if I come back with undelivered packages.

When I drove containers years back we went to a rail yard on 63 state. (Conrail) drove past and sometimes were stopped at red lights front of housing projects where crowds of people would help them selves to your load if you didn't have more than a tin seal to secure the back doors.
One driver was beaten to death trying to stop them.

 

Back in '97 0r '98 I can't remember if it was Detroit or Flint, MI. But I had a pick up at a General Mills plant. My dispatch instructions said to stop a certain intersection and call on the CB and someone would direct me in. I've had dispatches like that before thought nothing of it because they must be doing construction. I get there and call the guard he told me he'll be on his way. When he gets there he instruction me on the path and tells me not to stop just go in the gate. As I pull up to the plant I see a guard with an M16 walk out into the street and the car speeds up to get inside the gate. As I go inside I see the one in the car get out also with an M16 and watch for the other guard to get back inside the gate. All for cereal and when I left they told me to turn left do not stop until I'm on the interstate.

Ekco Manufacturing in Mexico City. Everyone here is wearing a gun and ready to use it.

 

oh.... at a meat plant in WI and had a bomb threat so they had to unload each trailer...that took hrs to load to begin with...... and check each one and the trucks in the faciltiy. better to be safe than sorry but come on, we were in BFE!

 

I live near Detroit, worked in the city as a cop for twenty years, really its not that bad...If someone clowns you, Just smack the living #### outta them.

 

Toss up between Gary IN and Baltimore MD

I don't do Detroit. Ever.

I'm not sure why everyone whines about NYC- it's a heck of a lot safer than the above...

 

i know i feel the same way going thru small towns in the south and being told not to be here after dark

 

That could be considered a act of terrorism as I believe that type of spray is an organophosphate, which can kill someone very easily. You might check into that one

I'm really surprised no one has said Memphis or St. Louis so far. Two of the most dangerous cities in America for violent crime and neither one has been mentioned.
