I wasn't the first one to refer to Hastings in this thread and I used it to keep the point of reference the same. So lose the righteous attitude since it doesn't suit someone like you.

Worst in North america?? hahaha, laughable. Watching The Wire(dubbed one of the most realistic shows on television) told me that there's probably dozens of American cities that have way worse areas than Vancouver's Downtown East Side.

Can you back that up with anything other than fictional tv shows?
