But that would take away the only reason to go to that armpit of a school. Getting drunk and shot at is where it’s at.

They all look unhappy in that photo. Must have been after the last football loss to Clemson.

Five Points has been an absolute cesspool, just like the rest of Columbia, for decades now.

Fights, drunken behavior, and car accidents don't begin to even remotely describe it.

You know, I can't tell the difference between a line at a Coolumbia bar and the line in front of the courthouse...

They should just hold court in 5-Points and save time***

Passing the bar just got a bit tougher...

Probably an unpopular opinion, but my take is this:

College kids are gonna be college kids, one way or the other. I would just as soon have their activities centered in one area, such as Five Points, in the case of Cootlumbia. At least that way, law enforcement has a smaller footprint they have to watch out for.

I kinda agree but there is another issue. The 18-24yo double standard vs "college students" and non-college hustle 18-24yo that are working or in the trades. The "pass" that the college kids get compared to the non-college kinds for acting like 18-24yo idiots in their safe-space needs to be curtailed or at least offer a similar legal "pass" for the young idiots (not my recommendation here). Because those "college kids" already have that small, safe space, it is called campus but they are more afraid of "their admin" than real life law. That is an issue IMO. Sorry, rant about "college kids being college kids 'triggers me' lol. BEER UP!

I put Yuppies into the same category as college kids.

Better to herd them all into a relatively small area. Then, they are less likely to contaminate the world at large. They still need a few years to realize that they do not, in fact, know it all yet. :)

One of the biggest problems with Five Points...


Apr 15, 2021, 1:23 PM [ in reply to Probably an unpopular opinion, but my take is this: ]

is the hood rats, gang bangers, drug dealers and other criminals who frequent the area.

There is a reason why, based on FBI Crime Report data, Columbia was recently ranked in the top 20 of most the dangerous areas in the country.

Five Points is definitely a primary contributor to that ranking.
