Students that aren't local enough go to the colleges in Columbia and not everyone isthinking safety matters. Good for him to have said something

The facts speak for themselves. How many people need to be shot downtown before city leaders admit there is a problem? The real problem is not geography but the people who go to the establishments there. Stay away from groups of dangerous people, wink wink, you know who they are.

I strongly believe that the "townie vs. students" tension is mostly contrived and Mun Choi is milking it for attention & money. While violence in Columbia IS a problem, it's citywide, not just centered on Reign Bar, a place where "those people (wink, wink)" tend to gather, which seems racist to me.
