What a fucking joke. We got out in the early 90's and it was bad. When you get 6 families that dont belong living there, and cram them into a 2 family house, and each pays what they could afford living in east NY, you get East NY. Bars on windows and muggings. Your a joke and Its a shame I can never bring my kids back to Canarsie and say I lived there. Im embarrased of what it has turned into. I dont mind living with black people. But what lives there now are black trash!!

Indeed...most of the blacks who live there now don't even realize how bad it is...they grew up around all that shit! That's what's really sad...they don't realize how low their standards are...

I lived in Canarsie in the 80s and early 90s and this whole attitude is the reason why I couldn't wait to get out. People think that because they are white and have a little bit of money they are better than everyone else. Or maybe they just need someone to look down on because they are uneducated and have an inferiority complex. No one had any class. At least the people there now are more real- they don't have to look down on other people just to make themselves feel better. My parents still live there, and I don't think it's so bad. The neighborhood went through some dark times in the mid-nineties but it has gotten a lot better- and it has nothing to do with race so shut up. The people on their block are really nice- the new ones and the old, black and white, russians, chinese, etc.
