The French should **** until they figure out what to do with the massive ghettos surrounding Paris
There are plenty of high rise ghettos in the former communist regime countries too. A guy from St. Petesrburg told me that the Russian ghettos pale in comparsion with the behemoths he saw in Paris. But maybe his opinion was biased.

Russia doesn't really have traditional ghettoes because of decades of Soviet policies, most of our ghettos just look like regular apartment blocks. I lived on the fourteenth floor a building that looked kinda ghetto, but people didn't get robbed or anything. The most dangerous thing in our building was the elevators. It's a miracle I never got stuck, you get stuck in one of those traps and you're gonna be there for hours.
But if you include Chechnya, oh man, those ghettoes would make the Brazilian Favela look like the Hamptons
Who doesn't have something negative to say about the Bronx? I read somewhere that the Bronx continues to lose its Caucasian population which I'm sure is one reason the Bronx is still seen in a negative light. Brooklyn's Caucasian population meanwhile is on the rise and of course Manhattan is becoming ever so Caucasian as well.
Dude much of NYC lost its white population or loosing its white population. You see the white flight is not over and whites that are born in places like Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens will most likely move out of their boroughs foe the suburbs or some small city. Brooklyn Caucasian growth steems from poor Hasidic Jews and not from Midwestern yuppie transplants who remain primarily childless.
"C'est le Bronx"
Yes for us, the Bronx is worse than Bagdad. But let tell me that, each time I am going to Manhattan and asking to visit the Bronx, people/taxi drivers say to me "Are you crazy? Do you really want to be rapped? In the Bronx, they will shoot at you in less than 10 secondes"
So if people from Manhattan tell you that, you think it's true!

Which ghettos? There is no ghetto in France, except what you can see at TV about France.
DO you know how many crimes there are in France, just compared to one city in the USA (Chicago for instance)?

The biggest Russian ghetto is probably its government office building, where the power corrupts legally rob and bully their civilian Russians/visitors in wide day light. This image based on my experience from over a decade ago, and things might have improved since.

lolz. who cares? As long as my neighbor is a decent person who respects where h/she lives, I don't give a flying bleep about what color they are. And not all minorities are poor and living in public housing, but I guess that's still a secret to some people.
Also, people can think what they want. I'm proud to say that I was born and raised in the Bronx.

Exactly, I don't know why people still care about that...
@amaroW faut sortir de chez soi un peu, bien sûr qu'en France on a des ghettos. Et c'est faux de dire que les taxis refusent d'aller dans le Bronx, j'ai une amie de ma mère là bas et ça lui arrive de prendre le taxi hein. Les gens de Manhattan c'est comme les Parisiens, ils croient que l'autre côté du périph c'est la jungle.
Taxis do go to the Bronx nowadays, this ain't the Fort Apache days anymore.
