It's not fair that drug dealers are taking over the projects . Who is dealing with this ? Well no one exactly because the cops try but every time they try to catch them they are clean because they hide the drugs. How do you fell when you see people falling out in your building and you don't know them and they don't live their? Well its the drug dealers front because they gave that stuff to the people so they could smoke or sniff the drugs. Do you think this will ever stop ?
