This is where things are, dude. Had an interesting conversation with a Colombian yesterday; she told me she doesn't feel safe in East Boston, which is heavily Colombian.

Her reason? Because she knows what Colombian people are like. That blew my mind. I don't know if that's primarily a race thing, but the fact that she just assumes that living around other Colombians is more dangerous than living around Americans in America, is weird.
