If a white guy walked into Brooklyn during daylight, will he get shot?


discuss.

No Dumba$$ but you might!

No. CorpGov wants racial divisions, and helps perpetuate the idea that white people will get killed in predominantly minority neighborhoods. The reality is that crime is the exception and not the rule, even in tough areas.

Now, if the white guy is acting like an ass in a predominantly black, high crime area, that's a different story...but a black teenager acting like a gangbanger in a rich, white suburb probably has a better than average chance of being the victim of a shooting as well.

JD from the Howard Stern show lives in Brooklyn (near Coney Island), and he's the nerdiest white guy you'll ever meet. He's never been shot, though he did get mugged on the Subway once (guy punched him in the face and stole his iPod)

Are you really this ignorant or just making a joke?

reply

Believe it or not, Voltio8836, there are probably about a million white guys who actually live in Brooklyn.

Six or seven times.
And stay away from Sheepshead Bay, cause then you get fed to the fish.

I've been to these places portrayed in the movie numerous times - brighton beach, neptune avenue, etc. It's quite lovely and charming area. I've walked through harlem many times a few times in the middle of the night. Nothing happened even though I knew it wasn't safe. During a day many times walking down the street black kids would greet me ironically "how are you officer" only because i was walking in the harlem as a white male.

The whole NYC area isn't nearly as dangerous as it used to be.

Yeah I am 27 black guy and a lifelong Queens resident. I have dared myself to goto every corner of Brooklyn (alone half the time) and nothing happened to me. White, black or Spanish its all in how you carry yourself. Case in point I have been to Bensonhurst before 2000 when things all over the city were still tense and was never discriminated against just got the second looks though. Also have been to the tougher East New York many times and I gottta admit I barely left the main thoroughfares but then I walked the dark side streets I acted naturally and just did everythig not to draw attentio to myself( i.e. rapping along to a song loudly on your IPOD )

I was born and raised in Brooklyn and I still live in Brooklyn. I've never seen anyone get shot or anything very serious, although when I was a kid some guy did fire some shots right outside of my house (at a car).

reply

Realisticly, if anything you'll get mugged.

reply

OMG, are you serious??? LOL
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
