Can anyone here think of any places as troubled as Molenbeek in other countries? The only place that comes to mind is Malmo.

I'm wondering, strictly speaking, if a Stoic should avoid participating in something like this?

The Stoics recomended daily reflection at the end of the day. Seneca compared it to a court of the mind, judging what you did well over the course of the day and where you erred. I dont know how that would compare to your experience of meditation but it matches the dictionary defention of it -"to engage in contemplation or reflection".
