*Not always. Just enough that it is unsafe for non-blacks. Do you ever read the news?*

The news? The same MSM that I’m not supposed to trust any other time? That news?

You probably think the whole non-suburban world is is like the movie “Training Day”.

The way you act one would think this country was EXACTLY like Zimbabwe *right now*. Obviously, it isn’t.

*Learn how to properly interpret generalizations.*

Learn to say what you mean. You don’t speak for me and I doubt you speak for the majority of people on this site. So don’t ever use “we”.

*I talked to a buddy of mine just yesterday who has been told by homeless people in Anacostia (Washington D.C.) “You don’t belong here, you need to leave” (he made a wrong exit off the freeway)*

Yep. Anacostia is rough camp. Yet tons and tons of non-black people work in SE DC and somehow they make it home alive each and every day.

You use Harlem & Watts because you probably live in some lily-white nowhere and are scared to death to leave it. So all you know about “black America” is what you’ve seen on All In The Family and Sanford & Son reruns—or maybe “Cops”.

Kind of. I was referring more to the plentitude of articles posted here on FR. The news unspun. Isn't that why we come here, to find out what's going on in the world?

You probably think the whole non-suburban world is is like the movie “Training Day”.

Never saw it. I don't see many movies nor watch much TV. 500 channels and there's never anything good on. :^)

Some neighborhoods are (detroit) and many more are trending that way. Have you paid any attention to the damage that obama(mugabe) is doing to this country?

Most people understand the conversational use of the generic and we will continue using that mode of communication.

SE is more that anacostia. The Navy Yard area has been gentrified in the last few years and during daylight hours is pretty safe and clean. I don't know of tons and tons of whites who work in anacostia. In fact during the few times I've been down there, I never saw another white person there. (I somehow always ended up missing a turn on 395 and ending up on Pensylvania ave in Anacostia)

You use Harlem & Watts because you probably live in some lily-white nowhere and are scared to death to leave it.

As I said before, I use Harlem and Watts because most people recognize them as black majority areas.

I do live in a lily-white area at present. It may be way out in the middle of nowhere, but it is not a "nowhere'

I previously lived in Alexandria VA (Washington DC) and in a majority black neighborhood in Milwaukee WI.

So all you know about “black America” is what you’ve seen on All In The Family and Sanford & Son reruns—or maybe “Cops”.

"All in the family" was not about black America. Perhaps you're thinking "Good Times"? (I seldom watched Sanford & Son. But then I didn't watch AITF or GT either) Most of what I know is from living there and reading about it here on FR.
