DC is not even close to the most dangerous city. It's actually in my opinion the most improved city in the country. You have to go out of your way to find crime now. I know downtown by the Verizon Center/Chinatown was a terrible spot 10 years ago. Now I've heard people call it a mini Times Square because of the video screens and how crowded it is. Like I just mentioned in my previous post, I'm a DC fireman. 10 years ago every individual fire station ran a good 3 working fires every day. Now we run 3 working fires on a BUSY day in the entire city as a whole.

Trinidad is a bad area of town, and they did have police check points. It has/had the busiest fire station in the country stationed there, but it's getting better.

Where is this McDonalds that you are talking about?

I wouldn't know the exact location because I'm not from there but it was close to the white house and I think the highway was nearby. One going north to Maryland.

Heck, you could have lived in Wash Heights (160's) circa 1990 and you would have said it isn't that bad. You have NO credibility.
LMAO sorry man, but this is just plain BS. Seems like you've been known to dip into said kool aid supply yourself! Here's a couple quality nuggets I've noticed:

But I venture to say (though some disagree) that the worst of Brooklyn is worse than the worst of the Bronx(though they are similar in crime). It's just to me that Brooklyn has a more scary and dangerous vibe to it.

You've of course had many, many more posts that countered these by placing the Bronx/Harlem as the "worst" in NYC, so you should at some point make up your mind.

You have a bad habit of contradicting yourself. How are you gonna call someone out for drinking the same "kool aid" that you were earlier pouring yourself? Lol. Sorry to always have to bust you out, but if you don't want me to then cut the crap. If I didn't keep on having these things land in my lap I wouldn't need to keep exposing you.

I see you're not very bright. Maybe I said what I said because it is true? If you know anything about East NY, then you would know it is the precinct that finishes with the most homicides year in and year out. Where did I put it on a pedestal? Nice try though. You = fail.

LMAO you are dense.....hmmm....maybe the worst of Brooklyn isn't East NY? Umm have you ever heard of Browsnville? Have you ever heard of Bed-Stuy?

Nice try. I see I have a fan. But again you fail. Please, bring on more.

LMAO....Jman is tight!!

You're not actually this slow are you? You appear to be under the impression that what you said and meant here was debatable lol....WRONG!! hahaha

I'll explain this to you in detail, so try to keep up. You called someone out for buying into the supposed hype surrounding East NY, or "drinking that East NY cool-aid," as you put it, and you came to this conclusion by responding to him mentioning "East Brooklyn." YOU deduced East NY from the mention of East Brooklyn, not anyone else. Are you still following??

You then went on to say that "according to the stats," East Brooklyn "isn't any worse than south Bronx." So in one instance you're saying it "is the perennial homicide capital of the city and has been for quite some time," while in another you're accusing someone of believing what they are hearing about East NY being the worst in the city, even though he never even mentioned East NY in that post, YOU did. DOUBLE FAIL!! LOL.

There's no room for discussion here. You contradicted yourself AGAIN, and I already proved it. Denying that at this point only makes you look weaker than you already do lol. The point is, if you bought into the hype yourself you don't have any right to accuse someone else of doing the same thing. You're a hypocrite.

I realize that I've left you pretty desperate to try and save some face here so you're trying to claim that there was some other meaning in your words than what was stated, but its not working pal! Its all written plainly, and the contradictions came directly from you, so you really don't have any way out of this. Sorry to break it to ya.

Ahh the usual cowardly cop-out by Mario, I expect nothing less. Take note, YOU are the only out of the 3 of us who actually mentioned East NY. Again, YOU brought up East NY in response to the mention of East BK, and then were exposed for having drank the "cool aid" yourself. You're funny man, in a pitiful, handicapped kind of way.

Apparently if its not bolded and dumbed down enough, info completely bypasses you. Here's a couple key points I'll help you with since you're incapable of actually picking this up on your own:

Sorry buddy, but the only failure here is YOURS exclusively....FAIL!!! LMAO...a gallant effort tho, really, really nice try!

Trust me, you don't want me to bring on more. Not that you have any shame or self-respect judging by the ridiculous fables and exaggerations you habitually post on here, but there are so many ways you make yourself look bad, I don't need to list any more here. And regardless I won't hesitate to point it out bit by bit as I continue to see you contradict yourself, so don't worry I'm sure there'll be more soon enough.

Man, cut down your posts! They're too long....but my go

I'm not sure but I hope you know that East NY is a neighborhood in eastern Brooklyn....and not a neighborhood in eastern Manhattan. Have to make sure of that (especially knowing how dense you are).....

Second......When someone mentions "Eastern Brooklyn"....they are reffering first and formost to the East NY neighborhood. Brownsville is to the west of East NY. You could ask the poster, and they would tell you what they meant.

And when I said perenial homicide capital....that's not gassing up...are you so stupid? IT IS FACT THAT EAST NY YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT HAS THE MOST HOMICIDES ON ANY NYC PRECINCT. I am stating a fact. Now, when you make it in terms of rate, it's not nearly that bad because the 75th precinct in East NY has the most amount of people so obviously by raw totals it would be # 1. The south Bronx hoods are much smaller than East NY. So when you actually take rates, It isn't any worse.

Get it yet?

And I see you're city data's hero!! Trying to pick fights with Ny'ers. The one's you suck off you say "Na man you're cool!" and then with others you like picking up little arguments.....yeah I looked at your posts...

and you're nothing but a little b*tch.

For the record I was refering to both, brownsville and east NY, OTHERWISE i would have said east ny. You attacke me mario saying that I was drinking the koolaid because the south bronx was worse and now you're saying that they are roughly the same. Your inconsistency in your post is what the issue is. He didn't start a fight with me and I'm a NYer.

Ahh I see.

Then I assumed wrong. But Jman has a hard on for a few of us. NYC1DAY, me, Dover, and Fuctha....just watch this:


"The south Bronx is the worst neighborhood in the country."

(cue J)
