Is The Pocket a pocket full of trouble?

I was walking my dog tonight in the Pleasure Point neighborhood and got a good scare as I heard a fight break out AGAIN at The Pocket. Groups of men were fighting in the parking lot and one even looked like he had a bat. I was honestly afraid guns would be pulled. There's no where to hide so a stray bullet would have been hard to avoid. Makes me wonder about how safe a place like the Pocket is. I love a good dive bar but the crowd here seems rowdier than needed with drunk people roaming the neighborhood and yelling almost nightly. It's a pretty sucky situation for the mellow people and families that just like living near the beach. Is there anything we can do??
