As hard as it is for some here to believe there are areas with higher murder rates than others, and if you don't look like everyone else in that area it may make you more of a target. This is true no matter if you are black, white, brown, yellow or any other melanin combo you can think of. I know that there have been a couple of times where I wish my GPS had a safest route mode as well as the shortest and fastest route modes. I have lived, worked and been friends with most every ethinic group there is at one time or another, and I think that there are jerks, trouble makers, and evil people distributed through all of them. There are also some very good people distributed in all groups. To group everyone by the actions of a few is absurd. If we did that on this board we could say that all gun owners are Jew hating, muslim supporting, Obama voters. We all know that is not true, but I could post quotes to support my claim and swear it was the truth.
