What does this even mean? You played in the hood because you had money? Seems like anyone with any money and sense would do the opposite
You people just need to get out more

Schools give free food to poor kids. A kid wouldn't skip school due to hunger, if anything the kid would be there early for the free breakfast, and then the free lunch, that all poor kids get.
This is only partially the case. With all due respect it's a much bigger picture.
For example, in the real lift case of the family of kids I tutored, there were so many kids that mom had to work two jobs to support and some would stay at their various dads' houses on alternating nights. The chances that someone bought and prepared and fed all eight every night and morning before and after school? Maybe fifty percent.
So then if you go to school, assuming the bloods or whatever weren't blocking your way that day or making you walk an hour out of the way (=> we're just going to skip then too) you are hungry for first few periods of class.
So then if you showed up to school you got the free lunch.
So again the chances that all of the <18yo kids had three squares a day? Not great given the dispersion of responsibility and neighborhood challenges.

Why would the Bloods be up at 7 am hassling school children in the street? That doesn't seem like a profitable activity, nor is it consistent with behavior exhibited by people who smoke blunts and drink 40's all day trying to lay low on the corner and sling crack.

Years ago I had to do a cable modem install off gardere somewhere. The dude had a midevil style post and brackets he used to secure his door. It was a legit 4x4.
On that same call I was walking behind the apartments after connecting his drop and some little kid saw me walking and hollered out. Momma momma there's a white man out here. That struck me as odd.

Completely agree but I was tutoring 14yo kids. Can't exactly go to their mom and ask why she did it, was just hoping to slightly brighten the future of some little dudes that had no future.

Makes you tough if you're white. IYKYK. I'd much rather be a black kid in an all white neighborhood than a white kid in an all black or majority black area.
Gives you and edge later in life if you make it out though. Don't know if I'd be where I am if I didn't grow up rough.

What happens is these kids see baby daddy after baby daddy beat the frick out of their mom and so they think this is normal and it’s what they do later on.
I taught at the most ghetto high school and middle school in Shreveport. Those kids were swinging over nothing and would beat the shite out of each other in a second. Unless it evolved into a full blown fight, there were rarely any consequences.
Ghetto, just like poor, is as much a habit of lifestyle as it is an economic situation.

I grew up in a shiity neighborhood. My apartment bedroom window faced the parking lot and I was always checking to make sure my Mustang was safe from being stolen. Damn single pane windows allow you to hear everything going on outside. Although I'm much better off figuratively and financially now, I think that's why I'm such a light sleeper and wake up multiple times a night.

It’s like living in a reality show where the budget got cut after season one, the cast won’t leave, and the only prize is surviving until the next episode.

From a nice black lady in NO.
Moves in. Bunch of lowlifes next door hanging out at all times of day and night. Anything left outside stolen. House broken into when she was at work.
She complained. They killed her dog. She moved.

I get what you are saying and the problems that you will see in some of these trailer parks are not heard about as much because they are rural, but there are differences.
Trailer parks don't have territorial issues (which is what most of the murders in the ghettos stem from). Its usually one person providing the drugs and because of that there are no gangs. In the ghettos, the gangs are black holes. They suck in most of the youth and it is an on going cycle.

Murl & Vespasian early 80's through mid 90's.
I was very young and didnt understand my surroundings (pre-teen). I spent half my time there as the other half was the complete opposite (mid-city). I can remember walking to Behrman park to play on the weekends and walking to the frostop on gen meyer to eat with my grandparents. We would drive to the national canal villere in Aurora to go to the store on the weekends.. I had a good friend that I would walk down the street to vist back then who lived in christopher homes, about a block away from degualle manor. I was 11/12 years old at the time, never had an issue back then.
as I got older, I began to realize as I spent alot of time in the worst area that most people (from down here) could imagine, I had never had any issues back there...I look up some of the kids I was friends with back then, I found a bunch of them (that I could remember last names) obituaries that died very young, they were not gangsters yet when we friends, I didnt see that side of them as we were all still kids
