Right, because only immigrants create shitty neighborhoods

I never said all immigrants were bad, let's not resort to strawmen. The non P.C. fact is when you have multiple generations of illegals in an area then crime and gangs tend to fester over time.

You could also come to mid city, a neighborhood that's saturated with immigrants, and see a very normal, down-to-earth, dare I say it, "nice" neighborhood.

There's an important distinction between legal and illegal immigrants.

You could also go to West Hollywood, an affluent, mostly white neighborhood, and get cat called and your ass grabbed by hordes of cruising gay men.

I'll take East L.A. thanks.

I really don't think you've spent enough time in or around some of those bad neighborhoods.

Does the idea of getting shot in the back while walking to your front door seem appealing?

Or how about getting robbed in broad daylight while walking your dog?

What about having all your walls graffitti'd with ms-13 tags only to be threatened by the local savages to not remove it?

I've spent enough time in those neighborhoods, thanks. I'm not seriously making a case for moving there, just making a case for how much I fucking hate West Hollywood.

I've lived in MS-13 territory, for a few years actually. Constantly reminded by the tags on the sidewalk right in front of my apartment. So I'm not exactly talking out of my ass here. Funny that you bring them up considering they're not even Mexican; they're central American.

That reply above wasn't a strawman. Your post directly implied that bad neighborhoods are caused by illegal immigrants. And my response is: Yes, illegal immigrants do cause bad neighborhoods. And so does every other nationality and race.
