I came in here ready to just say fukk no off the strength of it being Umar logic...
But yeah, i agree with this, crime rarely affects you if you aren't up to shyt yourself... and if you do everything in your power to avoid the urban areas ( lol @ghetto) then you are throwing in the white flag at your communities oppressors.
basically saying I don't want to be around only black people. You don't have to be in the very worse areas, and even the worst cities have nicer parts of the core city.

when did he say this?
There is tons of black neighborhoods that aren't in the crime/ "ghettos".
I'm living in a safe cac and c00n neighborhood.

I agree with moving into safe black neighborhoods, rather than being targets for bitter, unmotivated poor people with nothing to lose(this is a gross oversimplification. Not all people in the hood are bad people). The reality is that you are a mark if stay in an environment after making all of the personal, educational and financial sacrifices to obtain financial mobility and security... and end up having jealous ones taking what you have work to obtain for yourself and family, going as far as killing to get it. You can say that staying in the hood is a viable option. When the crab mentality as regressed in the hood, then this can be entertained.
I personally have been a recipient(victim) of the mentality of hood/poor people that saw me and my family as a mark because my dad had a good paying job and we always had nice things that others of lower status couldn't afford. Luckily, I've never been robbed at gunpoint or had my car jacked, but my parents' house was robbed one year while we were on vacation and I've had bicycles and other toys taken from me growing up.

What do you have against Umar?
Nothing...
It's just that many of these dudes have a problem with one another, that's what I don't like
I live in what could be considered "the hood" by choice.
The more working/responsible people you get in a neighborhood, the less crime/fukkery will happen.
