This city has always been a city where crime is a problem & it seems that the city hides it from the news, reporters & most of all the people in Pittsburg. I live in W.Pittsburg which is now called Bay Point because of numerous stupid reasons. I'm 17yrs. old & seen more gun fights as fist fights out here. My life have been threathen many of times. No lie I've done bad deeds around the city but also walk the street everyday & night wondering if tonight is the night my life is gonna be taken. All I want is to have the city hiding things from the community because my family members & friends have been murdered many of times & I look in the newspaper & its either a "tiny" article or none about it but its millions of articles about (Oakland, Richmond, Frisco, Vallejo & even non-Bay Area cities). I don't agree with the crime in the city & seeing people I grew up with at a young age die from bullets & such is not how I wanna live. I don't want to change the city good deeds & death is always gonna be on the corner but can you please stop hiding it.
