Just saw this story over on KNS:

Knox County Sheriff’s Office deputies serving an arrest warrant Wednesday night uncovered a methamphetamine lab in a West Knox County subdivision, authorities said.

Deputies from the KCSO Narcotics Unit arrived at the home, 830 Kevin Road, in the Crestwood Hills subdivision off Walker Springs Road around 5 p.m. after getting a tip from a local neighborhood watch member, KCSO Assistant Chief Deputy Robert Sexton said.

Yikes. As if that weren’t bad enough, one of the comments on the story was making fun of this happening in “toney [sic] west knox.”

You see, that kind of makes me nuts.

The scary part about this story is not that the meth lab was discovered in West Knoxville, but that it was discovered in a nice, quiet, well-populated subdivision at all.

The question to ask is not how could this happen in West Knoxville, but could this possibly be happening in any other otherwise respectable neighborhoods, be they North, South, East or West?
