This house was sold just last month, wonder if the new owners turned it into an AirBNB as a business investment? WTF?

Until that trip, which was a long time ago now, I really didn't think too much about it. But I didn't expect to see them in vacation house developments in the Poconos.

All those places have lots and lots of former New Yorkers and many of them are trashy and turn many of those areas trashy too.

There needs to be an airbnb service where the host can decide who to allow in their property as guests.

My point was, the name "Armani" is no better or worse than the name "Robert."

Armani is simply a name, like any other name, and there should be no stigma or hatred associated with that name, just because it may not be to your liking.
A simple name indeed, they had absolutely NO INTENT to name their kid after a luxury brand, the same way many ghetto people, though broke, buy Gucci, Vuitton, and drive luxury cars when possible... no intent whatsoever...

Thanks for the inspiration I will name my kids Gucci, Vuitton and Ferragamo, it's is much better than Michael, or Muhammad if you're Muslim.

And FYI Armani is a European name, a last name though, Italian, you can't get more European than that. Naming your kids after a luxury brand only highlights the poverty of the parent's mind. And indeed he really honored his parenting style, but hey no stereotyping, right?

Like, if someone's name is Shloymo, or Moshe and is from Brooklyn I should absolutely not assume he is an Orthodox or Hasidic Jew.

They acted up because of:

-Systemic racism

-Police brutality
-These (White) "gun nuts" in Red States
-Donald Trump

A million bucks? Wow!
20 grand in property taxes? Wow! Wow!

Those two alone were enough to monetarily keep certain elements out of a neighborhood.

Why?

Higher education = Higher paying jobs =Lower crime. Few thugs can lay claim to the aforementioned. Simple Facts.

Introduce AirBNB and the monetary theory is thrown out the window.

Anybody with a few hundred bucks, not thousands or
hundreds of thousands can come in an turn your neighborhood
upside down in a weekend.


For a small town of a few hundred or thousands changing the code is a great idea
but may not work for a neighborhood of a 50,100 thousands.


Alternate approach: Paper trail of complaints.

Document police reports and send complaints
to AirBNB to have said address removed from their list.

Best wishes to all communities working hard to stay safe .

Don't ban AIRBNB. Prosecute the low lives and jail them. Until their actions come with consequences they will just move their chaos to a new location.

There have been numerous instances of sail by (yes sail by!) shooting in Mexico at large hotels.

I personally know 2 people who were at 2 different hotels, at 2 different times who experienced this. These kind of criminal activities can happen anywhere.

I see both sides.

Red states and their super easy access to guns does make it easy for criminals to transport lots of them to illegally sell in blue states.

The irony is urban centers in blue states (Chicago, san fran, nyc, etc) are where law abiding citizens deserve to be able to arm themselves most.

They need a registration system for guns like they have for car regs or driver licenses.

Guns shouldn't be that easy to get with no accountability in red states and in blue urban centers of dysfunction lawful citizens (after thorough background checks) should be able to carry to even the odds.

Why do crocodiles and hippos get along peacefully in the same ponds? Because they both have the ability to hurt one another. If citizens are only seen as prey and not a threat, criminals in cities will continue to harm us.
