Reply to Pot legalization not part of NH Senate GOP agenda by redditor01020

I don't understand why these people take a job representing the citizens and then just decide not to do that in favor of their personal qualms, but keep up the good work. Go ahead and show us how devastating legalization has been everywhere else if you're going to defend it as a health and safety decision. Surely it's taking lives all over the place like alcohol does.

Reply to Areas to avoid in Manchester? by gman2391

So weird how things shifted so quickly.

I used to rent an apartment on pine about 800 ft from bunny's superette, and it was super safe, never a worry.

Of course, this was back in '89....

Tree streets are a Nashua thing, Manchester has its own sub FYI:

South of bridge and north of valley seems to be the roughest area - and relatively speaking its not that rough. Check out the crime map:

Homelessness seems to of ticked up since the pandemic, pan handlers and people rooting through unlocked cars is on the rise.

None. Lock your car and don’t leave valuables visible in it (I follow those rules EVERYWHERE). But it isn’t the kind of place where you’re going to get mugged or assaulted out of nowhere just because you took a wrong turn down a shady street. I’m a 38 year old female, I’d say my situational awareness is average, and Ive been running on all the “tree streets” and all over Manch regularly for the past 3 years and I’ve seen some sketchy stuff but never ever felt unsafe. Well, safe from the kind of thing you’re worried about - on plenty of the roads I’m extremely concerned about distracted drivers as a pedestrian.

Pot legalization isn't part of the NH democratic agenda either. Haggie vetoed medical 3 times, and the state had to be sued by a stage 4 cancer patient in order to get cards out. They are both wings of the same bird, and apparently don't mind that every state around us is reaping the benefits.

Reply to Can you target shoot out in the forest off of mountain road in Sharon? I have been wanting to hike this forest and set up some targets way up in the mountains but am unaware of who owns this land. by [deleted]

Looks like that's the old Temple Mountain area, so assuming you aren't on private property and the town or state doesn't have any restrictions on shooting on the land then yes.

General rules: be at least 300 feet from occupied structures, know what's behind your backstop, don't shoot at the trees, and remember that frozen ground is going to behave differently when shot.

They need something to blame their problems on. Easier to blame the mystic other rather than blame unregulated capitalism. The biggest assholes on this sub want to build a wall on the mass border. Just mostly angry old boomers that are mad that coffee is harder to order than it used to be.
