Seriously, Dave was taken out of context by the usual suspects.  Brooklyn / NYC is pretty OK. 

Oh, ObOp! Thanks a ton, Telx!

        Dave as in David D has spent TOO much time in NY.
        
        I gave basic smart tips for any big city.  Just wear a Telx hat and
        you are safe. That is like the crips there in NY. Lots of respect from
        the gangs. Otherwise no one can make bets with their bookie, fo'get
        'about it....
        
        
        Enjoy your travels everyone! Come early, stay long, network with all!
