Subject: If you build a theatre, the crime will come

From today's Voice article dealing with S. Main St. crime.

"We are aware that particular area is a problem - the South Main Plaza," Crane said. "This nuisance stuff has the potential to grow."--------

Grow? My man, this 'nuisance stuff' is in full bloom. Has been for many years. Is going no where. And is likely to get worse before it will get better.

The pimps and their staff have been working that street like Bud salesmen at the Meadowlands for many a hot night. The drug dealers work without fear and drunks loiter looking for the next '13 cents' for another 40 according to today's Voice article.

So now a little old deaf lady gets stabbed. Dead. End of story. And it's on the doorstep of Wilkes and close enough to a future theatre to gets people's attention in a very bad way.
