  1. Wow! Looks like Rio Rancho is turning into an Albuquerque. It was just a matter of time. So sad.☹️

  2. This violence here in Rio Rancho does not surprise me. I expect it to grow. Why? Because our new president supports violence and chaos. Watch who’s around you. Might be a good idea to order what you want and pick it up.
