Major drug busts, excessive meth/heroine problem, depleted properties, crime, slum lords, now dynamite found and you report not a dangerous situation at this time.
Unbelievable, wake up, where would an old package of dynamite come from, and just show up. There's more to this than what is being told
It is no longer safe to even go out on your front porch
