They have come here to "get away" but they have brought it all with them. They don't go back during the weeks anymore, they've infested our streets, our schools, our F-ING SHOOTING RANGES (sorry didn't mean to get emotional) with their yo bro crap. If I wanted to hear "yo bro" I'd drive my ass to NY to watch all the half covered asses walking around the city. "They" have ruined this area forever, and sadly admitting that you are from one of "those" areas leaves you open for a thrashing.
From now on I'm skipping a generation. My grandmother was born around Phillie (don't know exactly where thanks to the 1902 fire) and my Grandfather was born in Carlisle (again, can't prove it because of the stupid fire). What idiot keeps ALL the records in one building let alone one room, moron.

Actually if you want to get technical my family has plenty of history in Pennsylvania. Going back to the 1870's when my mothers family came to this country they settled in Western Pennsylvania (In the Johnstown/Ebensburg region). After WWII my grandparents moved to New York and then came back to live in Western PA in 1993, and they still live in that area to this day. My mother even has a cousin that lives out by them. I even know for a fact that one of my ancestors on my mothers side worked as a tool and die maker for Bethlehem Steel right here in Pennsylvania.
So we really didn't ooze over, but came back home.
