this area is becoming ghetto. These young people don’t value life.
Instead of talking down on the community, let’s use hopeful and uplifting words? A change is demanded. Now, talk about that.
They have zero value for life
all areas without wealth are becoming ghettos
Opportunistic criminals, like an alligator is an opportunistic predator. Respect is not relevant, these “people” see something, then they take it, kill it, shoot it, loot it, destroy it, etc. The government has encouraged such behavior by rewarding it and telling the perpetrators they are the victims.
i cant recall a time when Indian Head hasn’t been ghetto….at least in the last 20 years
From a 60 year resident, you are young.
