Alton

I speak my mind, 'cause bitin' my tongue hurts.

About Me

I'm just a cat from the ATL living in Pittsburgh. I've lived in GA,NC,SC,OH,IN,and PA. I'm super laid-back as well. I just finished up my Political Science degree at the University of Pittsburgh, so i'm looking to get involved in politics/government or some type of social-issues based nonprofit. I love Atlanta Falcons football,politics,kung-fu and anime movies, and meeting all different types of people with various ideas and viewpoints.Passions: civil rights, equality, moderates, independents, social libertarians, separation of church and state, tolerance, anti-poverty and stronger hate crime and crimes committed against children legislation.Loves: Friends, family, America, and DemocracyBeliefs: Don't talk about it be about it, volunteerism and voting, strong character traits like courage of conviction, integrity, honesty, and accountability over excuses, giving, and that it's your duty as an American to vote and be part of the political process. Too many people died for your rights damnit! Represent! Independence, charity, activism, open and honest debate, and personal sacrifice.Dislikes: straw-man arguments, hypocrites, those who are selfish greedy and self-indulgent, and most of all... THOSE WHO DEMEAN THEMSELVES AND OTHERS BY REINFORCING ARCHAIC RACIAL AND GENDER STEREOTYPING CHARACATURES BASED IN RACISM AND ADVANCED BY IGNORANCE. Read books, stupid!

You scored 30 out of 40 on urban-rural and 27 out of 40 land intensity.
People know you as: The Bohemian Gentrifier
Quote: "That crack house just needed a little paint."


Your score indicates that you are a city-dweller of the old-school. You like a dense, finely grained neighborhood with restaurants, churches and brothels all on the same block. Although you've never spoken to him personally, you know that guy Eddie down the street is a pimp and you're sure to tell your lame suburban friends about him at every opportunity, just to freak them out.

The bad news is that as more and more people like you move into your neighborhood it gradually becomes less cool and more expensive. Enjoy things while you can, because in 5 years you're going to have to move to the next 'hood uptown.

Examples of places you should live: Baltimore, Philadelphia
