I'd prefer minority ghetto neighborhoods where I may be parted with my money, but won't be, say, jumped and get my teeth knocked out with a 2X4 by a group of drunk dirty people who perform such violent acts for pure amusement.
I am from the South and I never have to worry about this unless I am in the black parts of cities.

I told them I forgot my cigarette lighter in my car, as an excuse to get out of there. Once backed out of the parking lot, I nervously looked at my rearview mirror for the next 20 miles, my heart beating like a trickhammer.

I'll take the ghetto over a hillbilly town.
A few things.

Were you drinking like a Billy Beer or something? That could have been the problem.

I think going in a bar in an area is not truly indicative of the whole area. Unless you are going to compare that trip to a bar to a trip to a bar in East New York.

Did you really think they were going to pull a Ned Beatty on you?

If I where black, a hilbilly town.
If I where white, a ghetto area.

I am neither, therefore I am screwed.

I think hillbillies, rednecks, and racists are the lowest form of human, far lower than any black person in the ghetto. The reason is that it was a supremely barbaric, vile, and ignorant type of human who wanted to enslave people and then later not consider them full human-beings or worth of equal rights. Supremely vile. The fact that today, that mindset still exists shows that there has been no evolutionary progression or development among that group. Hillbilly area? Absolutely not.

I'd prefer the ghetto. There are no racists in the ghetto, just people responding to it.

^ you know.....not every hillbilly is a racist. My family comes from the Ozarks, which makes us hillbillies, and we are about the furthest away from racists.....the comment you made could actually be construed as racist.......just sayin'........

Both, this is like asking if you would rather be punched on the nose, or punched in your stomach!
