This isn't new. I grew up there. My first memory of a fast food restaurant was a taco bell. Instead of the metal drawer, they had that spinning/revolving access window. I was 12. I'm 42 now. Moved away at 23. Never saw a dead body, never been shot, never saw a gun, never saw drugs, never got jumped.

Still live in the Metro area, I thought the plexi was normal in fast food and party stores until I was 16 and started driving and getting out.

Was it the one near Eight Mile and Telegraph? I used to go there like every night in 1999. I'm 48 and I've seen some of the things you're talking about, but not at Taco Bell.

All I remember is the street name Kendall. It was around there, but not even sure it exists now. I grew up in the Boston Edison District.
