Well, I for one am not concerned about Lorain's image as far as the surrounding cities go. If we seem a little tough, a little dangerous, well...we're a determined, hardy lot. So yes, other cities around us should fear us--there's a good chance we'll eclipse all of them.

I also live in Lorain and will continue to live here. There is no way these punks and thugs should be able to intimidate us into leaving. I'm sure the armed robberies wil stop or decrease with arrest of the person who

That's a tough one Patti. I experience the same quandary when I tell people that I live in Lorain. I usually just try to say "I live in Lorain" in a matter-of-fact manner and then nod my head after delivering my place of residence to signal to the receiver that living in Lorain was a very natural choice for me to make without really explaining why. So in short, I don't really provide any room for waffling on either end. I think the positive head nod discourages any negative comments.
