Gang Problem

I am a resident of Chadbourn North Carolina. Even though politely estranged by living in Houston Texas, I keep myself refreshed and abreast of the status quo of my boyhood home. I am deeply sadden and bitter about the recent behavior attributed to gangs and the issuance of blame on the community. Having cutting my teeth in Chadbourn during it joyful and prosperous existents, we can only blame ourselves for whatever sickness my home is now experiencing. Now, it time for the clandestine clubs of the county both white and black to come out the closet and merge. Unfortunately, we must now leave the warmth and safety of our homes and react. Offensively, engaging this problem is the only option. However, please understand that the community of chadburn is hampered by more than the gang issue on the radar screen, but the age old problem of NO JOBS and suitable support services for our citizens.
We are now faced with a mandatory edit of eliminating the obvious gap between the have and have not (white/Black and now Hispanic). Chadbourn must actively seek out viable businesses to relocate to the city. The time is now, we must hire skilled professional in attracting industries and stop sending Mr. Billy Bob(offer, tax relief, building, and assurances).
Chadbourn is pearched on one of the most promising corridors in North Carolina, let's use it. Lastly, our elected officials should be pressured to visit all the churchs and schools and see how the other side live. For years the only time we new the city official were during election periods. To-date I am not sure white chadbourn knows;and there is a white chadbourn. Now, if fractracide is what you want, just ignore this e-mail and chadbourn. Having meaningless and devasive City Council Meeting has resulted in a death of of my town .
