I'm not sure how I feel about my neighbourhood...

Yesterday 

Last Wednesday

and let's not forget the shooting across the street a couple months ago involving a TEC 9

When I was a young kid (5 to 8 years old) I lived around there in the Oaks Appartments. Back then there was a park across the street where kids could go, but now there's none...

That neighborhood was always rough. Heatherington was one of 'the rough places' in Ottawa, the others being Ledbury, Russell Projects and Rue Beausoleil around the Patro in Lowertown....but Heatherington has always been the worst IMO. It was so bad my Mom wouldn't lemme trick or treat on Halloween until I was 9 and we had moved outta there...and that was in the late 70's...

I counsel people not to live within half a klick of that place if they can.

As for using a Tec-9, well, Intratec made that weapon to be a mean looking pistol...and everyone wants one because the Gangsta rappers make it sound glamorous because you can file down the sear on the weapon and make it full auto...

What Tupac never mentioned was that in doing so you risk the weapon hopelessly jamming and the ammo cooking off in your hand....personally, I'd give ALL these adherents of the new 'Thug Life' a Tec-9 and a metal rasp....and some hollow point ammunition too.....
