Serene Langley or The Wild, Wild West?

After today's gang shooting in rural Langley I sent the following to CKNW, which was read on-air around 6:55pm:

I was out in Langley last weekend, delivering computers as part of my computer donation program. I later commented to a longtime friend of mine in Mexico that Langley would be a wonderful, safe, and quiet community for her and her son to relocate to.

Now we have a bunch of gangster wannabes re-enacting something they've seen in a violent video game.

There's trouble in town and the first thought is that we need a new sheriff. But let's face it, the problem isn't with the police. Rather, we're cursed with a horde of weak-kneed judges and politicians who are afraid to resolve this matter. A minimum sentence of 5 years with no parole for any illegal gun possession would be a good start! But you and I know that they'll never make such changes.

One frustrated citizen!!!
