Boy, wouldn't be a shame if they had to tear that building down? NOT!!!!!! If they tore it down, I wouldn't be so scared driving by that location! As it is now, I am afraid of being shot or someone walking out in front of me and expecting me to stop. Which by the way I do not do! I might swerve to avoid hitting them but I DO NOT STOP!!!
