Myrtle Beach is a hateful, hateful place

Mrytle Beach sucks!

I have been here one year and been treated like crap from residents, cops and business owners. Now don't get me wrong; not everyone is a bad person. I have lived in worse places in this country and been treated better.

Let's see, I was ran off the road multiple times, called names by multiple people I did nothing to, got pulled over by police and had the K-9 called on me because of the way I look, was followed by CVS employees, for some reason, and was told I was going to jail for moving here.

All because of my religion and my looks!

So I don't drive a nice car or have a place to stay and I have tattoos and I'm Wiccan. That gives people the right to treat me like this? I am writing to every paper in the country, telling them the truth about South Carolina - especially Myrtle Beach.
