Whether or not it worked right, we all know why it was forced to go away.

There's still the tried and true method: "Roll 'em up!"

[Zathras]

Must not comment where it kept pointing to....

I don’t need an app for that. Am I anywhere near Martin Luther King Blvd?

Then I’m in ghetto land.

Take your ass-whoopin, whitey.

The world is a ghetto.

“Take a left on the Nelson Mandela Boulevard, mister, right past the ALL-NITE CHECK CASHING & LIQUORS.”

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Cities across the nation have graciously addressed this problem by naming their most dangerous street "Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard."

Just don't go anywhere near it an you will be fine.

I have a hard time getting worked up for a product that didn’t work, and was built with incorrect specifications, and was inherently bigoted if implemented as specified.

On the other hand, avoiding Greenwich Village may not have been a mistake.....

If someone puts out an app that redlines small areas based on the number of crimes reported in those areas, then we’ll see if it gets taken down.

You can always go online and check the crime maps:

Maybe some enterprising software engineer could develop an app called Avoid Obama’s Sons...

That kind of app would have saved lives. But PC is about sacrificing innocent lives on the altar of political correctness.

You have to do your homework before you leave home. Look up crime statistics. Look up the racial makeup of a neighborhood. There is a very strong correlation between crime and race. This is not disputable. Stay away. Today, it’s open season on Whites.

How about creating a map app and having it access the crime statistics websites? It would merge the two and show you crime rates on a map. This is not a hard app to create. Unfortunately, it too would be shot down.

What really bothered the left was that the app helped innocent people avoid getting raped, robbed and/or murdered.

The left wants equal opportunity rape, theft and murder.

[Red White and Blue patriot]

Political correctness strikes again.

Critics had pointed out that the site listed areas such as Greenwich Village in Manhattan as ghettos.

Gay ghetto?

[Joe 6-pack]

"The app reportedly didn’t even work properly. Critics had pointed out that the site listed areas such as Greenwich Village in Manhattan as ghettos. The reason was that the median income in that neighborhood is $75,000. So it appears the app was targeting based solely on income, rather than actual crime levels."

Wait a minute! For years, the left has told us crime arose in certain areas because of "economic disenfranchisment," and that criminals were criminals because they could not find good jobs in their areas...so which is it?
