Well now, with that kind of logic there would be no
spectator sports--MLB, NFL, NBA except perhaps golf,
no shopping malls, no office complexes vertical or
horizontal, no popular restaurants,  no public
celebrations like the 4th of July and no places like
Harbour Place (Baltimore) or Disney World.  He'd feel
perfectly safe on a Sunday morning in a small town in
the 1950s.
