yes it’s not the greatest place in the world—it doesn’t necessarily have anything for tourists to see, it has perhaps more than it’s share of crime and inequalities. but this notorious side to the city perverts reality. sure i was hesistant to serve my jury duty there but it’s often forgotten that are 2 basic sides to compton, the business side and the thug side. my vegan friend works in compton and is able to go out to lunch in the city itself and order vegan meals. i bet you didn’t think there was vegan fare in compton. spend some time there and shatter the stereotypes built in your head by hyper media.
