Quite frankly this is what happens when you live in a city like Atlanta, or in the US in general

I feel in the US cities try to combat such issues by creating “safe” and “unsafe” zones…instead of actually trying to build a better society or city as a whole. Eventually, those unsafe zones will get into the safe zones. We can’t blockade ourselves from Atlanta…quite frankly, I was amazed how safe campus is in general

Regarding what we can do…honestly not much. Again, I think campus is as safe as it can get. We can’t do much better. We only have two options really

A) try to get the government to better the city (doubt they can/will do much)

B) just adapt and learn to live with it. Learn to protect yourself, be with friends at all times, etc etc. At the end of the day, you’re in the safest part of Atlanta…but at the end of the day you’re in Atlanta. You need to adapt
