Anything across the tracks is troubled. Where 90% of blacks live. Please research and see how many young men between the age of 17-35 years have been killed or arrested in Jennings over the past 10 years. Not everyone was a trouble maker. Based on the population that's enough to concern an individual looking for a way out. You can't begin to fathom what goes on if you don't live there. #Facts but yes, that sucks that they were dragging their feet

So let's call it what it is...it's just like every other neighborhood of the sort in America. And for the record, Jennings isn't in Baton Rouge, so get out with that shite that he's got to get out of Jennings and go to Clemson. Baton Rouge is out of Jennings. Quit making excuses and justifying stuff. He got his feelings hurt, and wants to spurn LSU. That's cool. But call it what it is.

I'm from Jennings too, and you don't know what you are talking about. Jennings is no different than any other small town in the US and it's probably better than most small towns in Louisiana when it comes to violent crime.


quote:

Jennings, Louisiana, violent crime, on a scale from 1 (low crime) to 100, is 32. Violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. The US average is 41.4.
