That's a lie, Chris please share with the forum the number of times you've been to Russia so we can determine if your statements have merit or if they are coming from someone who was told by someone else; from that person who read it or heard it from some where but have never been there.

Have blacks been beaten there, yes there's no denying that. I read that, I heard about that but this does not mean the moment you walk out the door you're going to get bludgeoned to death? You need use your brain and be careful where you travel anywhere.

I repeat I have been there several times and have never had an issue and never felt threatened and yes the militia is everywhere shaking folks (Russians & tourists) down to make sure their passports are in order.
 
This whole is Russia safe for Black peeps debate reminds me that many moons ago, Harlem in NYC (when it was nearly all-Black), was considered unsafe for whites. Well, it's been proven time and time again that whites won't be killed the minute they step into Harlem. Yeah, shit happens, but it doesn't mean that just because you're white rollin' thru Harlem...you're gonna get killed.

BTW, 10 years ago, a female friend of mine from Australia, stayed with a brotha who lived in Harlem. She would walk around day & night, and never had any problem.

Yeah.

Of course i know damn well that you won't be killed from the minute you step out of your house if you're black. My point is, there isn't a place in Russia that would be considered "safe" where one would not be attacked. And that is a fact.

Well, the answer to all this is simple: If you're afraid...then don't go. Case closed.

Kid,it is not just being afraid it is being careful of your well being. Like I said you had connections of Blacks who lived there. Others don't and like that bro who wrote in the NYT those skinheads would beat you and no Russian would come to the rescue or call the cops. No Black male who is alone can't be safe in Russia.

Here we go again... If your a dumb muthfuka or unlucky then don't go.

Moscow like any other MAJOR city has CRIME and on occasion you might be a victim it doesn't really matter what color you are.

You can walk around in Boston and get your ass beat by some white dudes if you ended up in the wrong area. Jim Rice was one of the most prolific ball players to ever play in Boston but all them dorks talk about is Yaz, Tom Brady "Bunch" and Larry Bird you see my point?

I would venture to say there more dangerous places for an American Black Man to be in his OWN COUNTRY than in MANY foreign countries.

Stop guessin about what's out there and see for yourself.
 
once you realize that you can be beat up, shot up, hit up, and/or chopped up just about anywhere, at any time, your fear of traveling goes away. Violent acts happen all the time and are very dependent on where you are and at what time you were there and who was around. Some people had good experiences all over the world...some people had bad ones...

Just because one area of russia has men that like to chop up black dudes doesn't mean that the other area does too. There are some places here in the states that I wouldn't visit, like alabama...but I've talked to black people that had good experiences there and still travel there to see family and get in touch with their roots.

I wouldn't be caught dead there tho, for fear that I would be dragged through a street attached to the back of a pickup truck.

See how this works out and how it applies to Russia, Germany, and wherever?
 
ok guys, stop guessin' for real!))I live in Russia and I have many black friends from the different cities. Yes, there are those stupid skinheads, but they re especially active at the time of Hitler 's birthday. They all come to one city and start killing...the last year it was my city turn...it was horrible! but I wanna notice that they didnt kill any black person, they killed russians who were dressed american style or rap style etc...They killed one of my known guy, he was 17 . but many many black ppl live in Moscow and they re fine! just dont go to the outskirts of moscow at late night by urself...thats it! I m pretty sure, u gonna be fine! its up to u, anyway...but I dont think its really dangerous!
 
and yea, it sounds that scarry just coz ppl talk too much! lol same shit was with me when I ve been in US. everybody told me hundreds times "dont go to harlem or bronx if u wanna be alive!!! dot go, u gonna be killed at the same second u step to that earth!!!" lol but I went over there many times and NOTHIN' happened to me! I was with my friend, she is russian and white of course!)))
and in SF same shit! )))) they told me "dont even go to Oakland!!! its too dangerous, even cops are scarred to go there!" but I should go, coz of my work, absoluteky alone and again, nothing happened!
 
Safety is overblown....

When your ass is taken by force and beat the fuck up and you live to talk about it, then I will say so sorry for you and still go back to Moldova.

There some hot, motivated women in Eastern Europe and all this nonsense of the "Golden Days" being over is correct. In fact its more than likely better for those looking for serious long term relationships. The women are not looking for you to SAVE them anymore. Several countries have joined the EU and their economies are improving while ours is SINKING.

If you send money to somebody never met, your foolish

If you say Fuck You to group of angry looking white dudes, your foolish

I got stopped by the Milta in Kiev, I wasn't even there more than 2 hours.

They asked why I was there, said Um, okay and then I asked where the Metro was and they said "Over there" in English.

Get your heads out of your asses already. I can almost say for certain, if you go to parts of Africa, your ass will get shot at and your BLACK, what sense does that make????

I agree with them. I had this same mindset before I moved there, and it's nowhere near as bad as it was 40 yrs ago.

Relax. That can happen anywhere. I lived in St. Louis, and believe me when I say that they're notoriously racist.

LOL, you people are funny.

Not as bad as 40 years ago, like that's some sort of improvement that now you can't get lynched like Emmett Till for Allegedly whistling at a White Woman....

When many Black people still live in poverty in higher numbers than the rest of the country.

NO THANKS and most of your women are skanky or fat

The ONE true STUNNA I knew in Mississippi got left by her HUSBAND because he was more in love with his Crack addiction than his Beautiful wife and young daughter.

Like Wright said "Not God Bless America, No God Dam America" I say "Not God Bless the Dirty South, but "God Dam The Dirty South for FUCKING UP HIP HOP (among other things).
 
STL

I know its off the subject but St.Louis is more segregated than Most places in th esouth. If you go to south county and the next county over, the KKK adopted a 1 mile stretch of highway. You have to use common sense when you travel outside the us.

I hope it is all talk. I was saw a video on the internet showing skinheads beheading a Black guy in Russia. But it looked like they were somewhere in woods and not in the cities. I might go next year.
