    i get it. i used to live in the bronx and for those that dont live in NY, they think it's a totally run down shit hole. i mean yes, for some people who live in Bumblefuck, Wyoming it might be a concern and yes there are (some) legit reasons to be concerned, but youre going to get crime everywhere, especially in cities, where there's a higher concentration of people. but some people act as if right when you get into wash. heights there will immediately be hookers, robbers, and murderers at every corner :rolleyes:

    I've started to believe, many that make these comments are incapable of normalcy.

    How many of the people showing concerns of Washington Heights are saying "oh no! Domincans and Blacks! I'm going to die! Fuck the show!" and not, "I heard the area is bad. Is it an ok place to see a show?" It's a legit question. Always know your environment before going somewhere. They are just asking.

    Just as bad as racism sometimes is constant usage of the race card.
    I beg the differ, racism is by far the most inhumane thing on Earth. The race card does NOT equalize it.
    This race card thing is what? 8-years-old. Pffft...

    I'd rather walk around Harlem than Mobile too, especially if there's a meal to be had at Sylvia's.

    My sympathies and apologies to the OP, because I have seen racism snaking through this board at times, and it isn't okay.
