to be killed

derived from mercenary

the backwater town of California, and the only city that has a UC and can still boast that citizens can go anywhere in town and know at least ten people there. Filled with baby boomers whose own parents are from the hick parts of the east coast, the schools may be filled to the brim, but do not be fooled: if there ever was a cliche "country" town in california, this is it.

To get beaten to an inch your life

I know from living here,born and raised.I moved away in 2003.I came to the East Coast near New York city.Okay,Merced is ok if your just a so-called "normal" person.But if your different,like i was,and just unique and Flamboyant.This town is full of Homophobes.it's very closed-minded,Extremely Anti-Gay and full of stupid Bigots.I used to hate being hurrassed,and not feeling like i didn't belong.It was a hard place to live and be yourself.Being Openly-Gay in Merced County has been Hell.This is an OK town for some,But for me i had to leave what i left behind.and that was my Dear Family and "Some" Friends.The other stuff was pure History.I admit,Merced is a cool town,theres some nice people,but theres also a lot of Anti-Gay people as well.
