I wonder how F & M’s insurance company feels about armed guards ( especially after one of their rent-a-cops shot himself a couple of years ago and blamed it on an attacker ). Personally I don’t see why tear gas and/or tasers would not suffice.
As for Fry’s effect on F & M and the neighborhood, the students might not have a bad element to fear had Fry listened to student landlords before removing them in one swoop. The landlords advised that a phased removal would allow the neighborhood to get good tenants over time, but that suggestion fell on deaf ears. As a result there is some evidence that bad characters moved in when landlords were faced with mass vacancies.
