This one incident is the straw that broke the camel's back for me. Yes, indeedy, this single crime is all the proof I need that Boston has become a post-apocalyptic hellhole far worse than even a jaded observer like you could possible imagine. I'm loading the family in the back of the Prius and we're scramming in an hour - we're not even going to wait to sell our house, we've gotta go now!
And so does O-Fish-L. That wasn't his point. For some reason, he's offended that I compared Boston's weekend shooting rate with that of Chicago's in another post and that's what his crack was about, not some newfound sense of concern about the residents of Mattapan.
In all fairness, I heard Chicago mentioned over the past wknd on all of the major news outlets, including Uhub. People should be concerned if you start omitting news not reporting it.

You've mistaken Adam for ...
