it's not just metro. the same with richmond centre too. my coworker was at the food court with her friend. she had a $10 bill sitting under her paper cup drink right in front of her. she was thinking about what to buy for lunch. and this guy just ran over and took the $10 bill and ran off.

a note to everybody, don't leave your money on the table like that in general. be careful....

omg..  I hope your bro is okay..

I saw a fight involving 20+ ppl outside the Disney store too.  I heard some guy say that it was about two guys wanting to buy the same Disney present for the girl. lo ...

LOL, r u serious? fighting over a disney present?
I can imagine a guy with a black eye and a lost tooth talking to his girl "Honey, I fought 20 guys to get you this Mickey Mouse!"

Vancouver is seriously getting messed up, but HK is pretty freaky too. depends on how you look at it...on another note, on deciding who to vote for in this election, i was looking at the 3 major parties to see who has a commitment on beefing up our security in this country...

SURPRISE! no party seems to care and none of them even TOUCHED on security/safety...all they talk about are cutting tax $$$, the economy, and just attacking their opponents...dont get me wrong, while the economy is important, isnt the safety of civilians just as critical?

how's hk pretty freaky?

GAClone

you dont find hk freaky?

- rude/uneducated people
- wei yuen ah bak's spitting everywhere (and poking their things into places...=P)
- always feel like u're getting ripped off one way or another
- Sales people in malls who constantly get in your face even though you've politely rejected w/e they're trying to offer you
- bums ganging up on people on streets
- once night rolls around, gangs roam the streets
- teenagers committing suicide when their hearts get broken...(u dont tend to hear that happening here in North America as much...)

BUT vancouver has issues of its own, so im not here to just bash HK, and HK still has it's good traits. i just tend to be very pessimistic w/ HK cuz I dont feel very comfortable when I walk around the streets, always feels like im gonna get robbed. and when i walk around at night, i always feel like someone's gonna grab me into a back alley and start beating the crap outta me...just for me that it feels unsafe in HK...

people in hk live in fear most of the time so it's easier to be paranoid (such as the constant contamination of different foods). here, even though there's crime and all that, the events are usually tied to gangs somehow (in general). there seems to be a lot more crazy people in hk w/ mental illnesses. so the chances of a random attack (without reason) is greater

some might disagree with what i have stated, but that's just my own opinion, there's no right or wrong answer to begin with. it's all "gwoon deem yu gok dou"

lol i've also realized there are a lot of seemingly "unstable" people residing in HK as well.  those ladies that talk to themselves or those men who stare at a wall and start arguing with it....

all the stuff you posted does not affect the safety of others.  all the points you pointed out are harmless to others and doesn't even happen.   does rude/uneducated ppl point a gun and start shooting? will a old man spitting kill you?

there are hardly random attacks in hk.... even if so, its not fatal.  most likely just posted on youtube or go on newspaper.

all fatal attacks in hk is targetted.   there are hardly any koo wat jai that minds other ppl's business anymore.  they wont just mess with u for no reason.   

ppl in hk dont carry a gun around, you won't get shot while going to the mall.  you wont get stab by brown ppl in the club.  you won't get rob walking down the street.   there are actual police in hk that catches criminal.

For a pussy like you that think even HK is dangerous.. why are you living in vancouver?   do you think vancouver is safe?  there are more shootings in metrotown in a month then HK in a decade.   HK is one of the safest cities on earth.   You probably won't even survive for 1 second once you enter china.

Nice random attack you got going there. If Im the big pussy, then what are you? Attacking people on forums for speaking their mind is a REAL non pussy thing to do. We truly need more cocky people like you on earth (who THINKS they're always right) to make everyone else think their opinion isn't worth a dime. Did I NOT mention that what I've stated is strictly my opinion? And that it's not for losers like you to agree that I'm right or to prove that I'm wrong.

Why are YOU living in Vancouver then if you think Vancouver is so unsafe?

I'm all for people speaking their mind, but there's a thing called critical feedback. Oh sorry, you're probably not educated enough to do that.

this just pop back into my mind. on sunday morning around 3:30ish am... my mom co-worker was leaving his house going up Joyce street towards Kingsway. when he was driving up to kingsway on the outter lane, there was three black or brown guy ran towards his car. he quicky pull over to the inner lane and step on it to stay away from them.
i guess those guys thinking that he is the only one in the car, gonna go rob him.
some weird guys..
