Have you ever been to Compton?

I went to Compton dozens of times when I was in my early 20s. I was a white boy driving a brand new Lexus SUV wearing a suit and going to meet random people in neighborhoods I had never been to before and I never felt unsafe even for a second. I also used to get lunch in Inglewood at least once a week and also spent a lot of days in South Central all with zero issues. L.A. ghettos get a bad rep but from my experience, mostly in the early 2000s, they weren't bad at all.
