To argue that, they would have to admit that maybe certain races actually commit crimes at a higher rate than others, which blows their argument about incarceration rates out of the water.

Most people want to see Cher's or Aaron Spelling's house.

Damn, I used to work a lot in those areas--I could have taken them there for half that and lived like a freakin king.

There are other tours one in NY that gives a pass by the Hells Angles clubhouse, Chicago has tours of the Mob sites from the 1930's.  LA has a Death tour that takes people to the site of some notable performers demise.  I myself went on a tour before Katrina in New Orleans of the brothels and cemetery's.San Francisco had tours of Alcatraz, in the Nappa area now one can tour the Japanese citizens camps.

Tours are just tours of like minded individuals to see things they only read about, trips to haunted hotels, China town and Civil War sites.   

So far I see big possibilities for the Gang Tours, it is a safe, so far, way to experience the life style of others.   I have heard gang members want to sell tourists T-Shirts with some gang logo,  keeping tourest money coming in may turn the worse of the worse into business men.

gotta love capitalism!  :-)

It'll last only until an ambulance-chaser gets ahold of it and demands revenue for the "victims"
