Everyone has seen them. Especially me. I go to a private school. A lot of people there are rich. And their idiot kids think they are ghetto. This post will be divided into 3 parts:

1: What is *really* a ghetto?

2: Sunnydale, Anywhere is NOT a ghetto.

3: In the real "ghetto", you wouldn't survive.

(in this post, the word *you* is directed at anyone who believes they are ghetto.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is a ghetto?

Ghettos, historically, are walled parts of the city where **** were forced to live during the Middle Ages.

Slums, projects, whatever, I mean you could say that, but "ghetto" is way off.

Notice that "ghetto" is a NOUN. A person cannot be ghetto, a person cannot be suburb, a perso cannot be town, etc.

But for the sake of the argument, we will use the fake definition used by the idiots in my school.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunnydale, Anywhere is NOT a ghetto.

75% of the people in my school hail from south Miami. This includes upscale Coral ******, Dadeland, Sweetwater, etc. NONE OF THESE ARE "GHETTOS".

The only areas I would consider remotely being a "ghetto" is the North-East area (Carol City, Liberty City, etc.). NOBODY from my school is from there, I have checked the directory. But, people still are ghetto. Morons.

The fact is, most towns are not ghettos. Don't try to paint it like that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The fact is, gang warfare, crime, is not cool. I wouldn't understand why you like it. But fine. Let's say you do.

The place is tough. Hardships abound. Poverty, violence, vengeance, etc. It's like stepping into Mogadishu. Gang Q just killed one of your members. Your gang, Insert Gang Here, decides to retaliate. You and your *homiez* go into a corner, *9s* at the ready. Six guys come around with AKs. You are fucked.

You (in this case meaning the idiots at my school) are sheletered kids living in upscale houses where crime is low. In the ghetto, you would be destroyed.

Thank you.

I live in Killeen Texas and I could care less if anyone tried to stalk me. My apartment complex would shoot you dead if you stuck around long enough.

Your definition of Ghetto is wrong. According to the 'Concise Oxford Dictionary' (the definitive dictionary) a ghetto is

1. A part of a city esp. a slum area, occupied by a minority group or groups

2. hist. the Jewish quarter in a city

3. A segregated group or area

So someone can be from a Ghetto if...
They are in a minority group and live in a city (especially a slum)
so for the US/England: any african-american/african-englishman who lives in a city is 'Ghetto'

A group of people can actually BE GHETTO (correct word) if they are segregated.

Correct, but still, "ghetto" is a noun, not an adjective. A person cannot be ghetto, a person cannot be suburb, a person cannot be city, a person cannot be farm, etc.

You should look to having your car's hood fixed (bad for drag) and take the midget to the hospital immediately.

another rant, not really related though :eek:

please, stop replacing simple words with retarded abbreviations like, you = ur, are = r, be = b, to =2, etc.

it got old A LONG FUCKING TIME AGO.

also, it makes you look like a 12 year old AOL using, unedcuated lazy-ass RETARD.


that is all, kids. :domotwak:
