2nd and Ash Streets are NOT in the hood, but that intersection is in downtown San Diego.
It is becoming necessary to stay out of the cities, including the downtown.
That makes it all the more scary. I work in a good part of a small city filled with feral yut. All of these knockout stories, flash robs and just the general crime makes me evaluate every move I make. I carry concealed, but you can't see this coming, and if you did, it still isn't a justifiable use of force.
