- dillydally 16y agoHuh. I canvassed there during the 2008 election. I didn't even get funny looks, which has happened to me more than once when I went into the "wrong" neighborhood in Chicago. In fact, I once pulled over into a gas station only to have the attendant tell me I needed to get into my car and drive off. I've never once had an experience like that in SF.

- ryanwaggoner 16y agoI think he meant that happened in Chicago or elsewhere, not SF.
- kolya3 16y agoMaybe you got lucky? Went there on a "good" day? No idea. Either way, I like to learn from others' mistakes :)
- dillydally 16y agoIn Chicago, not SF. Nothing like that has ever happened to me in SF, even as a white guy going door to door in Bayview. Also, I wouldn't call it a "decent neighborhood," I just don't want to make it seem like you'll get shot for setting foot there, is all. I wouldn't live there.
