Is there really "safe" neighbourhoods anymore? In this city there is no where that is completely safe. How many homicides, assaults and countless other crimes are committed in what have been traditionally "safe" communities? Whenever there is a shooting or something else like this everyone comes out with the "must have been Forest Lawn" talk. But these things cycle and move. Now, I'm not saying Forest Lawn or Dover or Marlborough are fantastic areas as of now, but I feel just as safe driving thru there as I do driving in a number of other places in the city.

I attended church as a kid in Inglewood and at the time it was a dump. Not the trendy neighbourhood it is today. Across the street from the corner store we used to grab candy and pop at, was a japanese porn theatre. This is now the revamped Garry Theatre.

All I'm getting at is this stuff is happening all over the place. We have gang problems and all the other things that come with living in a city this size. Hard to get around it no matter where you might try to go.

As to the OP, I hope the police are taking care of the issue and that this family and the other innocent people in the area are ok. That's really all that matters. Keep us posted.
