The one here is in a nice area, but I know what you mean.
Risking you life for fried chicken just makes it tastier. Good things come at a price.
It has absolutely NOTHING to do with the brand or type of establishment. The problem is with the demographics of the clientele.
Arguing that KFC, McD's, Walmart or Waffle House are the problem uses the same logic as the "Confiscate All Guns" crowd.
I've been a customer of these brands of establishment for as much of my 72 years as they have been in business. Only once did I feel uncomfortable and that was at one Waffle House in a particular demographic area.
