PERSONALLY I THINK U ARE TRIPPING ON THIS WAY TO HARD. YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH GO ALOT OF PLACES IN THE CITY AND GET BY AS LONG AS U MIND UR OWN BUSINESS AND DRESS NEUTRAL. STICK TO MAIN STREETS AND U WILL BE COO. JUST DONT GO WONDERING INTO SOME HOODS U DONT KNOW. AND PERSONALLY I DONT SEE WHY U WANNA GO DOWN THERE. SHIT ISNT SOME FIELD TRIP. MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE WOULD LOVE TO TRADE PLACES WITH YOU AND DRIVE A AUDI A4.

cobrah...you go down there and act like you don't even know what your about..like some tourist or something...yeah, your'e gonna be victimized...you act like a victim..you will be one.

You go down there..eastside..or anywhere for that matter and act like you got buisness and no what you're doing chances are all will be well.

There's definetly TOO MUCH HYPE 'bout certain parts of L. A. like it's wild wild west or something...it's bullshi_t!

It's just common sense..you go somewhere you got no buisness being and start acting stupid..you gonna be in trouble. Some places are definetly worse then others and the degree of trouble will reflect that...clown at the beach some surfer might kick your ass..you clown at the projects..you get smoked..it's as simple as that.

Act like a man, respect and be respected and be yourself you may live to be a grandpa.....ANYWHERE.

thanx for the answers, yehh lol it would be like that, fuckin nazis, killed my gramps and grandma, it gets me really pissed how different races fight now adays, i mean, who cares if the guy on the other side of the street is wearing blue, and ur wearing red, i mean u are all humans with the same problems, and the same issues, i dont get it how people cant get along, I know this sounds idealistic to the max, and quite ignorant, and i know there is alot of shit i couldnt eve begin to understand, but if you really think about it, its fuckin stupid. I mean yeh, the KKK, the NAZIS, they should be our enemies, not the guy in the different color shirt, with the different tatoo

look i was born and rasied in compton till i was 16. lemme give u my opinion on what would really happen. you would get very wierd looks from most people u come across but ur not gonna get shot just walking. if u gonna stare at some one they might have the impression taht you have a problem them, and as most of us know u dont like it when people stare at you, so tehy might start trippin. i would say dont stare or try to ' mad dog " any one. and of course watch what you are wearing.

Ps . that was a iggnorant question ....

Nothing would happen to you. I take long walks in LAs skid row to clear my head. All the crackheads,pimps,gangsters,drugdealers and hookers dont bother me. Just mind your own business and you should be safe.
