Whens the last time a tourist was attacked in this city?
Besides, based on this thread, I assume he is from Pittsburgh and is just bitter about something

"I've never had a problem and I've been to dangerous areas," like that's more relevent than all the victims who have run into problems.
And I never told anyone not to come to Center City, so don't put words in my mouth. I specifically said "Philly is a great town w/ a bad element - even the good areas can be dangerous." When you flat out lie about what I say, it means you can't find enough wrong w/ what I really said, so you have to try to make it worse.
