have you noticed the number of these "bad" crimes (murders...) happening in the bethel area.  call it "Beltimore"  - with the whit becoming gentrified, this seems to be the designated birth place of true, located- here- in- eugene,  hard large gang activity. there is no patroling - the cops only come out to check out the crime scenes or make arrests. . when i do see them, they are parked, ignoring all the traffic infractions happening. they're doing paperwork or god knows what, or i see them driving - but never out of the car unless a traffic stop, or someone in the neighborhood winds up in cuffs.
 it's terrible to not feel safe in your own home. we have battened down the hatches. it's why we are moving.
