Highland Coffees, LSU football and soccer, 13th gate, etc.

SIAP, I tried the search function.

Life in Baton Rouge's most dangerous neighbourhood

Plagued by violence and poverty, the postal code 70805 is considered to be the most dangerous part of Baton Rouge, the capital of the US state of Louisiana.

Or that at least is how outsiders, most of whom only drive past the neighbourhood along either Interstate 110 or the ironically named Scenic Highway, view the community.

Over the course of the month BBC Pop Up spent in Baton Rouge, Benjamin Zand visited the area several times and spoke to many residents.

He asked them what life is really like in the so-called "worst neighbourhood" and what they would like to see change.

I hate the Germans thing, so I know I'm a hypocrite for doing it. But, that thread actually contained some good conversation.

It was a cool series of stories by the BBC.

As do I, which is why I warned him instead of being an a-hole just because its been posted already.

I wish the search function was better. I probably woudl have been better off going to google and searching "Tigerdroppings, bbc, 70805."

The piece on highland coffees was good, and the piece comparing the popularity of LSU football to soccer was especially notable for one of our fans saying he didn't like soccer because "we like scoring." To his credit this was before the Arkansas game
