Baltimore people don't play and haven't for a long time. I got a gun pulled on me for having a window down north of JH campus. Ran a red light to get away.

yeah it was honestly stupid for me to have my window open there and not a good place for me to be, but I wasn't very familiar with Baltimore yet and I was young. That said, it wasn't my fault, but I wouldn't go there or be in that situation again. Farthest I go into Bmore these days is Northern Pkwy exit off of 81.

Indeed...there was a pretty intense sense of violation, for some reason. As a guy, being made to feel powerless is not a fun experience.

That said, it would never happen to me again - mainly because I know and respect the city now. Respect in a "knowing its dangerous" and "where a white dude shouldn't travel" sort of way.

Yeah we pretty much stick to the white L and don't really go out much a night, especially alone.
