This is not a controversial statement. While I generally agree with what Rod is saying, saying "NYC is safe" is like saying "all routers are cisco" There are safe areas, and there are not safe areas. I don't know how the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn bridge rates, but I don't think I'd be overly concerned. And, since people going to NANOG tend to have a herding instinct, there shouldn't be a problem. > New York has a lower incidence of crime than Miami, Detroit, Seattle, > Los Vegas, Houston, Atlanta, DC, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. Yes, but in at least most of those locations, my Florida or Utah CCW is valid.
