A fired-up neighborhood group is threatening to boycott the big-box Mecca that is the Edgewood Retail District if safety measures aren't beefed up in the wake of two violent attacks and thefts in the complex's parking garage.

But some neighbors worry a boycott is the wrong approach. [Creative Loafing]
