I used to be fine with going to the Wheaton Target, but this is I believe the eighth carjacking at the mall since December.

I had no idea. We are Wheaton Mall frequenters. I may be rethinking this.

Who is the council representative for Wheaton and Wheaton Plaza?

Racist much? Sheesh. No, there is no infestation.

You are sick.

LMAO. If you are going to try to discredit an argument by manufacturing racism, you usually have to at least make some reference to to it. Not even a dog whistle here. Just a reflex?

All part of the affordable housing plan. If you can’t raise rates, just increase the crime. It’s really just a brilliant MoCo economic strategy.

I feel the same way. I am/was a frequent target, Costco, and Chinese food restaurant patron of the mall. I never thought twice about carjackings, but this is the fourth, fifth one? I just can’t risk being the next.

I feel like things died down a bit in Silver Spring lately.

Many factors, but some include a shortage of police to enforce, and then prosecutors that don't prosecute for "minor" crimes.

Now now councilmembers Jawando and Mink want to make it so police no longer do traffic stops, since they feel cops are being racist in who they pull over. Yet traffic stops are a great tool to catch criminals with illegal weapons and drugs during a search of the vehicle.

Time to vote more responsibly, otherwise the crazy will keep getting worse.

Yet another shooting, this time at Wheaton Mall. I just can't keep track anymore of all of the shootings, assaults, and carjackings. The lawlessness is just out of control. There are still no suspects for the last 2-3 murders in DTSS as far as I know either. What the heck is going on? Are residents now required to dodge car jackers, shooters, and all of the idiotic illegal car meetups doing donuts at intersections just so they can go to the grocery store or pharmacy? Insane.
