I moved here in 2005. It's a bigger issue than it was when I moved here 17 years ago.

You will always have the meth heads and weed dealers. Organized crime is a little different. Seeing MS13 tags or Hells Angels/Galloping Goose or the Joplin Honkies doing stuff in Springfield is more common and yeah, a lot of it is coming from KC.

As Springfield grows, this issue will grow with it. Just like the cat convertor theft ring of the last 2 years. That's my point.
