I wonder how many of you have actually been to the states the OP listed in his starter post?

But, we got lost on very small, narrow mountain roads, we followed a bunch of half broken signs, trying to make our way back out of the park. We got lost, we found ourselves driving through mountain backroads for over an hour. Deep in the woods we found a small town of approximately 100 people. Most of the barns and signs had swastikas painted on them, yes swastikas. All over the whole town!!! In this tiny little town there must have been about 50 of them drawn all around, some of them about 8 feet tall on barns. It was obvious that many of the swastikas were really old, had been there for a long time and that whoever is in charge of that town allowed it.



Keep in mind my friend and I were definantly sticking out like sore thumbs, our whole style was nothing like what was going on around there, we are Californians. And I am white but he is Asian, so we were very. very scared, we armed ourselves with what we had.....



I don't think the name of the town was posted anywhere. There were no signs, no stores, and nothing else to be seen at all except about 20 barns, a pump well that seemed to be for the entire community. And piles of garbage, wood and debri on one side.



We drove through and the only people we saw were a few 10 or 12 year old kids standing near a blazing fire. They stared right at us with a violent and intimidating aggression (yes I felt intimdated by 10 year olds). But there was a big swastika behind them so that probably had something to do with it. I still remember that kid's face. Just mean, cold and totally ruthless, like a hardened criminal.



As we were driving away we heard one of them yelling and saw him running into a house. We figured he was getting his Dad or big brother so we got out of there as fast as we possibly could and drove as fast as we could until we got up to Port Angeles. And Port Angeles is amazing, loved it there My friend and I were travelling though Olympic National Park in Western Washington State, which is a deep, thick, mountainous rainforest, one of the most beautiful areas of land i've ever seen, lush, green and full of large animals.But, we got lost on very small, narrow mountain roads, we followed a bunch of half broken signs, trying to make our way back out of the park.

GL2 That was probably the safest place you have EVER been in ajf131. Obviously there must NOT be too many thieves in the area or the locals would NOT be leaving their valuable firearms out in the open and unlocked.GL2 01-07-2008, 11:43 PM GottaHerdOn Location: Elkins, WV 1,981 posts, read 5,518,118 times Reputation: 813 Quote: Ozark-Baby Originally Posted by The problem is that you missed the fact that there are many areas of this nation that have inbreeding that goes on a lot and much of this happens to be in the southwest of the country.

I hit a deer recently while driving home. This really nice young red neck in a big four wheel drive pulled over immediately to help me....a middle aged woman. He checked out the front of my car, asked me if I was okay, assured me it wasn't my fault, and then promptly removed the small deer from the road to the back of his truck for supper after making sure I didn't want the meat for myself. I felt completely safe. I was reading through some of the post and wondering the same thing. I guess it all depends on where you come from, but as a single woman with my car breaking down, I would MUCH prefer it being in a rural area than any city I can think of. I've lived in both areas and I have no idea why someone would feel threatened by people who live in small rural towns. Maybe they aren't as edcuated, but they will surely show more respect and courtesy than you'll get any place else.I hit a deer recently while driving home.
