[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Honestly, there is no way I would live in any area of Silver Spring in an apartment building or close proximity to an apartment building.[/b] https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/05/30/police-fatally-shoot-man-during-negotiations-inside-silver-spring-apartment/ What I don’t get is why lower income residents of Silver Spring have such a higher propensity for violence than lower income residents in Fairfax or Alexandria.[/quote] Ok? Nobody is forcing you to do that. Though it is an odd conclusion to draw from an incident where the shooting and killing was done by the police.[/quote] If you read the story, the man was holding a hostage. Who wants to live near unstable, violent criminals?[/quote] If you read the story, the man was in the apartment with his mother. Please tell me where in Montgomery County it's possible to avoid living near people who have mental health crises, parents, and access to guns. https://www2.montgomerycountymd.gov/mcgportalapps/Press_Detail_Pol.aspx?Item_ID=45317 [/quote] HE WAS HOLDING HIS OWN MOTHER HOSTAGE![/quote] Well, that's not what the police news release says, but if that's what he was doing, then yes, that is something that people experiencing mental health crises do. Which parts of Montgomery County don't have people experiencing mental health crises? I live a long way from Silver Spring, nowhere near any apartments, and a family member called the police again for another welfare check on one of my neighbors, just last week.[/quote] What is your basis for saying that he was having a mental health crisis?
