Not for the same reason - - I understand your comparison, but it’s not the same (although I’m not sure about Dearborn).

I also think you overstate your case. You might have a problem in the areas you identify, if you’re walking around there at midnight, but during the day, you can pretty much go anywhere - - I know, because I do.

you've been to Compton and "walked around" or south of florence and south Park. riiiiiiight.

or if you go to Miami, you just walk around the Overtown during the day cause it's SAFE? That's kinda funny. I had relatives that lived north of Florence in LA and will/would never go back...it's a dump and dangerous in the day and at night.

I've been lost in Miami and wandered through Overtown in a car, thank God I had CCW permit, and got back on the highway ASAP.

Road the train in Chicago and was asked what "you boys doing on this train?" Which was a GREAT question. Took the wrong one headed in the wrong direction. We got off and called the cab.

Visited a friend that lived in philly and got to see Camden...

So no, I don't think I've overstated that there are areas of the country that you shouldn't travel in.
