Do you think sex offenders should be required to live together in a certain area or community, why or why not?

I think North Omaha is tied up in large proportion with rival gangs. Drugs from Detroit fuel the violence. Just what I've heard from obsessively following crime on the Internet.

What zone is this in? And where's that exit?

RE: Aurora, Illinois.

It doesn't surprise me to see an Illinois city on the list, but I would've thought somewhere farther south than Aurora. Southern Illinois has a region called "Little Egypt" (you may have heard of Cairo, IL, one of the larger towns there). That part of Illinois has a huge gun culture and feud culture, originally between families and groups of families but now more evident in organized gangs. Little Egypt is nowhere you'd want to live. (I have family there. Neat, huh?)

So, some of that culture must spread into the rest of Illinois. Maybe that's why Aurora. Also, drugs and guns from Detroit would be a factor.

I'm surprised, actually, that Detroit doesn't make the list! It's like Beirut--ever seen it?
