More crap from the Section 8 capital of the metro area. Until these ghettos are bulldozed and the concentrated level of poverty is better spread throughout, this cancer will only spread. Penny Gross, are you listening; get it front of the BoS and say enough enough and clean up the dump.
Arrested are folks from Falls Church, Alexandria, Maryland, Maryland…rather than vilify those of us who live here, why not focus your sad anger on those who travel here?
There is crime everywhere. If you don't want crime, then you can't be around people, go be a hermit on a deserted island.
You all have been drinking some gross cool aid. The crime rate here in Mason continues to climb in these section 8 communities. And your right, its not always necessarily the folks that live here it the slime they attract. Concentrated ghettos have been proven to be breeding grounds for crime. Go read your history books and get a realistic picture of how crime propagates.
The last two posts authors sound like they attended Trump University and got there diplomas on fake news and where facts dont count.
Helpful tip 12:14: proof-read your post carefully before you insult someone's intelligence.
Another day, another post somehow sneaking in a Trump comment and connecting him to the people and occurrences of our local area. Pure brilliance. Keep the intelligent comments coming.
Has nothing to do with intelligence, my comment has to do with facts: concentrations of poverty fosters higher crime rates. One can be as stupid as a rock and still become county supervisor or even president.
Well,
At least according to the new attorney general of this shxtty county, the criminals arrested could be released back to the streets in a very short time.
Yay!
Cant wait for more violent and crime in our community!
So proud of our public servers who really cares about us!
