Don't listen to these two, they are talking about investing based on fear and recent memory as opposed to what makes sense for your goals. 

Especially based upon incomplete facts.

You set your screening standards based on the class of your property.Unless you specifically want welfare tenants in which case you adjust the screening. 

Talk is talk, but valuations are based on closed sales not talk.
