Crazy times we in
The crazy part of it all is that the full video of the victims is being passed around, just seeing that young man laid out on that barber chair with blood leaking out his head is insane!! We have to do better
Maybe that's what people need to see....
to jolt them out of the fantasy world they live in their heads. Nothing like a dose of reality to wake people the F up. Of course some people never wake up.

Was pretty nice
I remember when pretty decent. Makes me feel old.
No, I dont
When was Four Corners a nice neighborhood? 1964?
Not to say that's its a terrible neighborhood now... but realistically no I don't ever remember hearing it described as "nice"
Ever consider the fact that an old neighborhood- unless its exceptional- generally become less favorable due to the age of the homes, and amenities, and store space in the neighborhood? Like how long should something run of the ill remain "nice" for .. realistically?
I was referring to the early
I was referring to the early 1970s. Back then there were no organized large gangs like we know them today. Cocaine was to expensive to be considered a street drug.
Video going around
of the departed in the barber's chair, like something from the Godfather.
Four Corners train station is safe
Mainly because the station which stretches for over a half of a mile has only a handful of passengers.
