Making Myrtle Beach great again
In 2011, we purchased a condo in Myrtle Beach. In 2011, there were shootings, rapes, groups of people stopping traffic to party on main roads, and urinating on buildings (ours included) during Memorial Day weekend.
The next year was much the same, plus people doing awful things on linens in hotels.
Our friends, with small children, were forced to walk in the streets by large groups of blacks. We couldn't block out our unit because the NAACP would sue.
Thank you, thank, thank you, Myrtle Beach City Council for providing new rules and law enforcement and once again making Myrtle Beach a great place to vacation on Memorial Day.
Thanks to all the police who made this safe once again.
