My sister could have used this some years ago when she got lost in Milwaukee in a high crime section.

I can think of a lot of black and Latino people who would like to avoid high crime areas. Are they racist too?

Just wait until some ‘blacks’ write an App that helps them avoid Hispanic neighborhoods.

High crime areas have exactly the same outlines on the map as areas filled with America’s first victim group. So if you show a high crime area, you are showing a high minority area.

Is it coincidental the “bad” (dangerous) neighborhoods tend to be black or ethnic neighborhoods? If an app that helps me avoid an area based on crime statistics tends to direct me away from areas that have a high black or ethnic population, how is that racist? Sometimes the truth hurts.
