I've been living in Milwaukee for a year now. I tend to mind my P's and Q's and don't really get lost. There was one time before I moved here and I got directions from my buddy in Tosa on how to get back to the highway from Mayfair mall I believe. Somehow we ended up on Lisbon Ave. on the NW side. Good googly moogly was I nervous. Cops at every corner, it did look like something in a "movie".

I'm confused, why would "cops on every corner" make you nervous? Shouldn't that have put your fears to rest? Do you think somebody's going to carjack you when there are police all over the place?

think about it......

we sure have come full circle

in the early 1900's if a black person went in white area, oh my

now they can, and go unharmed

but if a white guy goes in a not so hot black area, well, flip a coin

although racism is there,, nowadays i feel its the blacks who really keep it alive

Why do you people insist on being ridiculous?

If you honestly think Black people are savages and are going to attack you simply for being white, then please stay the hell away from Milwaukee and go lock yourself in a bomb shelter somewhere in Waukesha County. You'll be plenty safe there.
