Yes, the fact that a drug house, with drug dealers and a gun is in our neighborhoods is VERY troubling.
Law enforcement officers put their lives at risk every day because of this scourge. The presence of a gun puts anyone in that area at risk, a stray bullet is as deadly as any other.
The young adult girls from Ridgewood “were arrested leaving the home earlier and charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Also taken into custody were two juveniles observed making marijuana purchases at the home.”
They were not charged in relation to the gun. The thing that so many people don’t “get” is that by purchasing/using these drugs they are automatically funding people with guns. I hope this a wakeup call to all area parents that even if you “used a little pot in the 80’s”, you should be firm with your children, drug dealers with guns are what they are going to be dealing with, and fund. I hope in the school health programs when they go through the pharmacopeia of drugs, they can now take time to show pictures of a gun also – because it is intimately related to the trade.
I didn”t mean to sound soft on drugs or guns, and I do hope particularly that the 2 young adults and 2 juveniles do eventually get their lives back on track, but as I said “Justice must be served”.
But is there a tear in my eye for them and their families? Yes.
