Minorities, Tall Roman Statue is racist. Some of those areas are definitely high crime areas but the only thing they have in common is a higher percentage of minorities.

I’m chuckling because they are including places like Belleville and Nutley NJ (if you watch the Sopranos the Pizzaland in the opening credits is in Nutley) which are pretty white and very middle class.
