Due to the high rate of crimes committed throughout big cities by gun violence, it is essential for Law Enforcement to enforce a solution to prevent violent, brutal crimes from occurring.

Living in a Section 8 neighborhood my whole life, I’ve learned a lot about struggles that most kids at my school haven’t even come to see. In my neighborhood, everybody has something working against them and statistically speaking, most of the kids here will never go to college, will never have a stable career, and will end up in prison, if not dead. I know myself growing up without a father and my mom working day and night to support the family, I often didn't get the support I needed growing up and a lot of the kids here are in the same position. We’ve have had to take care of ourselves and fill the position our parents can’t.

The complex would include many large corporations. This could include Target, Big-W or Spotlight. The Blackwood community could access what they want, when they wanted. The teenagers and unemployed of Blackwood could have a greater chance of becoming employed. The local community could have a great economic rise, with other suburb communities coming to shop in the new complex. On the negative side. What would happen to the original local businesses? Would the feel and look of the town stay? Would the roads and infrastructure be able to handle the rising population?
