My former neighborhood is going to shit…

Received a slew of texts from my old next door neighbor about this…

This happened 1 block up from my old house.
We moved back to Texas 3.5 years ago…

Apparently the school district has a lot of violence, and behavior issues. Lockdowns. Shelter in place, threats…my old neighbor is pulling her kids out of school and sending them to private school because of this.

What was once a nice, sleepy little town is going to shit.

Tex, you’ve (legally) got.half the items on that list!

But yeah, the perp in question doesn’t sound like anyone that should be loose in any neighborhood.

The Molotov cocktail and the 5 bags of crack are the most concerning things on that list.

A crackhead with a Molotov cocktail in his car?! WTF was he gonna burn down with that?

Albanian.

Yes Albainian. He’ll be out tomorrow on bond…then they will lessen the charges in a plea bargain. Probably get 6 months probation and a 100 dollar fine.

I’m sure you remember when I visited you to buy the upper. I still remember the cool R/C aircraft you had! It was a very nice neighborhood as I recall. Such a shame! 1ltcap has the same issues down his way. I’m glad you got out in time!

I Live in a Rural ass area in SNJ where we can shoot on our private property (assuming you have the land for it), etc.
Town has something like 15-1600 homes in its entirety.
They approved a proposal to build 900 55+ and duplex units, of course some units being affordable (~100 or so) housing, in town… And that’s just a SINGLE development across 3 different properties in town.
In another 10 years, my town will be unrecognizable. I’m just hoping when it goes to hell, property values will have increased enough for me to cash out and move. That said, the concern is where to?
PA? Doesn’t seem like they’re doing much better.
