That's such a foreign thought to me, having to worry about going somewhere because I might get shot. I'm able to be in the absolute worst part of Vancouver without having to worry about it. The times I've been there, I didn't even worry about getting robbed or anything. It's more sad than dangerous.

I've been in Mexican slums though where I was absolutely convinced I was not going to leave alive.
