    Atlanta can get sketchy real quick.

    Check on New Orleans. Stick tightly to the chamber of commerce trail map for tourists or you're asking for it.

    Not what they once were, but Overtown, Liberty City or Carol City in Miami. Back in the day, there was nothing like it. They've softened a bit, but I still would not be caught walking through even in daylight.

    NY - uh, none of the boroughs are tuff anymore. None.

    Lolz for any mention of anything Seattle. Tuffest neighborhood in the NW is Hilltop baby. Ask Ballz. Seattle is like Disney World compared to most US cities.

    Worst I've experienced? Wandering off the campus of the University of Chicago. South Side baby! It ain't no joke.

    South side of Chicago is a war zone. Chi-Raq is a real thing. Took a cab to a Bulls game that went through that area. Prayed to real God every time we got stopped at a red light.

    Atlantic City, NJ was pretty grimy a block off the main strip 15 years back. Definitely had some people giving me and a buddy some dirty looks.

    Philly is an absolute dump outside of the historic / downtown areas. Would not recommend anyone visit that city.

    NYC was really not that bad.

    Seattle is not anywhere near the level of those areas, and it's because of demographics. Worst place is probably downtown at this point.
    to which I'm a fixin' to take my wife and shih tzu for a long walk for perspective. so it's all relative. Seattle is a walk through the park. anybody who's afraid of Seattle needs to reach up into their twats and find their ballz. i've worked there almost my entire adult life and have not once, ever, had even a moment's hesitation about anything. ever.

    the way you describe SS Chi, which is accurate, is what Overtown and Liberty City once were. still not good places to find yourself, but not like before.

    The first actual ghetto I've been in was when I had to drive to a manufacturing plant in some shitty area of Baltimore

    I was like holy fucking balls. Just burn it all the fuck down. It's hopeless.

    West Balmer from Towson Ave on is scary as fuck.

    I remember the moment. It was like late 2012 and the song "let me take a selfie" was on and I was thinking fuck am I gonna die to this?!?

    I'd argue it's even less scary than it is just fucking depressing. Like what's the move here?

    Then I remember AOC knows what to do. So I feel better.

    Schiff and co give me a sense of comfort

    India near the Pakistan border.
    Was in an airplane, on the tarmac, being shot at.

    That was uncomfortable.
    Not the U.S. but it keeps me alert in any city.

    You actually own a Shitzu? Holy mother of God! No wonder you hate me.

    Oh and looking scared will get you eaten in a New York second.

    Get outside more often.

    I measure my dick with a ruler.

    You measure yours with a machine gun and a lot of tuff talk.

    We’re different. That’s for sure. Has nothing to do with how often I’m outside.

    You're tough on a message board.

    I simply post my experiences. I wasn't always allowed anything but being aggressive as the soft and unaware are the victims of the world. I didn't do my job under armed guard in a secure building. Very different worlds counselor and very different rulers.

    Carnation. Do not go into the local tavern with hair down past your shoulders and beat those rednecks at pool for $5 a game without having a planned exit. Luckily, I was fast out into the street where a cop just happened to be sitting.

    Now I am a redneck so it is OK to beat them.
