manchester is bad with gangs though mate so shootings etc are normally kinda controlled by ganglords etc whereas nottingham has no ruling firm therefore little hoodied kids go round shooting people hence assasination city as people call us :(

Its just the usual in Leeds...hospitals been rearranged so beds face Mecca..stabbings, fights

I've lived in South Manchester all my life and I absoultley love city centre. People are taking the piss now with guns.

There are places I wouldn't drive through or sometimes accidentally stumble across and think oh shit lets get out of here quick!
