It sucks you got beat up bro, but blaming it on the city to save face is retarded. You've mentioned like 10 times alone how it's dangerous and you should carry a weapon and there's gangs running a muck, trying to make it sound like it's the french canadian wild west.
It's probably one of the last places you'd ever think of to get your ass kicked and just as unlikely to actually happen; but it did. like jigga said,wrong place wrong time
