Tell me about it. We are in a very conservative small country 75 milers due west of the district of criminals, and they have been all over here for a long time. I remember a one hour documentary on MS 13 I saw about 15 years ago. Ten minutes of it featured a woman murdered by them in our county. I spoke with an undercover DEA agent at a party last Thanksgiving about them and other gangs. He said people have no idea how much gang activity is in the area. And I didn't until listening to him riveted for almost 2 hours.

I used to live in Arlington for 8 years.

That was fine, as long as it was before 1980. Our daughter twice lived in Alexandria, and we hated visiting her there. I always breathe easier once 66 goes back to 2 lanes each way.

I was there from '91 to '99.

Just remember hearing law enforcement always warning about MS-13.
