bank robber @ takoma park MD

So...I'm watching the 11 o'clock news and what do I see? A bank robber trying to be slick and ends slipping on the ice. His hostage gets away, flailing her arms, and he ends up getting shot. I'm watching this in shock and disbelief and it hits me: I've been at that shopping center! I remember getting my feet done with my friend at the nail shop. Then, she got a Jamaican beef patty at the Carribean Palace. Then, we got some gyros next door at Tony's Villa Subs & Pizza. I can't believe there was a hostage situation! Then, I realized it was in Takoma Park, close to Langley Park aka Gangley Park. Now it makes sense. We, MoCo residents, are tired of PG county residents doing their dirty work on our side of the line. They're always testing the waters. They're such habitual line steppers. Yes, I'm quoting Charlie Murphy. Anyway, they should know MoCo police always run deep. ALWAYS. Routine traffic stops always require 3 cop cars. Shoplift incidents at the mall always require at least 2. It takes 2 cars to patrol 1 street. I'm not mad at it. We just know how MoCo rolls. So, why would PG county residents even try to mess with them? Maybe they didn't want to add to their awful crime rate? I tried to get insight on how others felt about PG's problems by reading other sites. To sum it up, those who defend it always say, "you've probably never stepped foot into PG county". Actually, we have and we got out asap. Others said it was just a result of DC getting rid of their problems. That's probably true. Someone even called it the "butt hole" of MD. Hahaha. I wouldn't say I agree with that but I understand why. Yes, PG county is problematic. To be fair, you can give it a try. Go ahead and move to PG county. If you can dodge the bullets and survive, me know what you think. -- m.s.
