Cool idea except a little further down is where the lowest of all morale is using every substance known to man while commiting serious crimes against people goin for a walk They are all on bikes they stole , there is this one guy down there tall black guy who lures unknowing white guys into his tent and becomes very violent if they don't perform certain acts for him. I saw this first hand Luckily the guy escaped
