I have clients who are doctors and nurses and move out because they can't stand it here. One moved to Phoenix, the other back to Quebec.
If you really want to read some violent stuff, read the Craigslist posts about the Sport bike crash on I-91 over the July 4 weekend. This is typical CT stuff. These bikes race through hartford every night on I-84, doing 180.
In downtown Hartford where I ride my bicycle, there are guys going up the sidewalk on two-stroke dirt bikes. Against traffic. And no cops anywhere. Oh yes, well, sometimes Jodi Rell has to call in the state troopers to control the gun violence in the summer. Big debate. I worked in NYC for a while, crazy, yes, but this is a war zone. I have another guy on one of my other threads who attests to this.
Then there's all the SUV road rage, but I won't go there ' cause I'll get attacked.
I plan on moving back to NY, never to return.
Enjoy the stories of carnage here: This is just one of the posts. Scroll away.
....Two very smart boys who told everyone how superior their riding skills and awareness levels were. Yes, I know, they were motorcycles, not bicycles, but it's the same stuff, just a bigger machine to play with.
