Rosedale Avenue in Durham is a traditional drug dealer/gang hangout. The fact that a suspect in the Eve Carson slaying was arrested there is not a surprise to anyone who has been down that street recently.

Question: Everyone in Durham knows where the drug dealers hang out. Why can’t the police and our city fathers do something about it? How many more Eve Carsons have to die before our elected and appointed officials put the safety and security of law-abiding citizens ahead of political correctness?

Question 2: When will our city’s leaders become ashamed enough of Durham’s reputation to do something about that? How many parents will choose other universities to send there kids to now that Durham’s rot is spreading into Chapel Hill? People of Durham, you elected these people. Are you satisfied?
