But it's totally on par for Gary. I like near South Bend and have to ride through Gary on 80/90 to get to Chicago every other week or so. It's a dedicated "no stop zone". I'll piss myself in the car before I stop there for a bathroom.
The Petro truck stop in Gary is really well kept. They do a great job of keeping it clean and the usual suspects out.

I was about to make the comment that I believe Gary is one of the most impoverished communities in the nation. Then I came across the statement from another poster. Truly sad. A fine example of the good suffering for the bad.

"On Aug 15 two workers in a NIPSCO vehicle were shot at there, causing a temporary safety pause. Gary is roughly 76-80% Black."

Everyone and anyone possibly involved from our Mayor, Shelby Co. Mayor, MLGW’s CEO, anyone in Memphis/Shelby Gov government…is black.

I have no idea what he expects.
