[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sick of people saying deteriorating city and the like. I grew up here and the neighborhoods where people complain about crime and they paid whatever price for new builds used to be no go areas. North old town, near Braddock metro, etc. The crimes there were atrocious. The city is vastly improved yet people go one next door and whine incessantly. [/quote]

Murders of 17 year old boys is not "whining."

It is different crime - organized criminal gangs infiltrating our schools.  A beheaded body was dumped at The Pit 4 years ago.  A raid by the federal government a few months ago led to 6 MS-13 "king pin" arrests in the City.  The City leadership refuses to acknowledge this reality, that is why it is deteriorating.  In the years you harken back to, people were not sweeping it under the rug.[/quote]

You think ms 13 wasn’t around ten, twenty, thirty years ago? You think wrong [/quote]

TC class of '91. There were no gangs when I was there. None. Times are very different now.[/quote]

Guess you completely forgot about the 1990 gang-related murder of a TC student.

Guess you completely missed the part where the feud was with DC residents and that he was attacked no where near a school. Embarrassing. :roll: [/quote]

So, this thread is only about shootings physically near school?  Anyway, that shooting in 1990 was near Ramsey Elementary.

The prior poster said there were “no gangs, none” when they were at TC and that simply isn’t true.  The article even  talks about “La Mara de Chirilagua.”  Whether students at the time realized it or not, gangs were active in Alexandria back then.  It’s not a new issue.

1- Ramsey is not TC
2- Chirlilagua is not TC
3- DC is not TC

Are you really that dense?

Because there was one kid attending TC that may have belonged to a neighborhood gang that fueded with gangs in other cities, does not mean TC had a gang problem in the 90s, by any stretch. But, please continue to lecture me about a school you didn't attend.[/quote]

Very strange take.  What point exactly are you trying to make here?  Gangs have been a problem in this area for decades.[/quote]
