I suggest a dedicated section in the blog for crimes that happens on Little river turnpike and Baily's crossroads.
They occur so frequently that it's just not interesting anymore.
"yawn, another murder, yawn, another robbery… ohhh…yawn"
no one cares.
This is what happens when you have an abundance of concentrated section 8 housing. The surrounding neighborhoods like Lake Barcroft should be screaming at our government officials who clearly have turned a blind eye to the frequency of these gang related occurrences.
They will not scream,
They'll just build better fences and get a more expensive private security company.
It is chronic NIMBYism and implicit racism like this that continues to divide and detriment Northern Virginia. You'll disagree but I thought you needed to hear it.
Yup and its the NIMBYs doing all the shootings. Coo coo for Cocoa pops must be laced with you favorite drugs.
