I don't remember it being there a couple months ago. It's not the hipster/wannabe graffiti but the real stuff. It's on the walls of the buildings across the street, it's on our building, it's on the walls near the subway, on the metal doors that cover business windows. It's everywhere. It seems like nothing is being done about it. <br /><br />I really don't care about the graffitt so much anymore but what it represents. After seeing so much of it and reading the police blotters from the last month (a rash of unsloved, unprovoved violent crimes), I feel like we are at the edge of a steep drop and that this summer will see some pretty rough stuff in our neighborhood--probably culminating with a murder before the cops (or us) take it seriously. I really hope I'm wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823154152148589387.post-42583934826514606372009-05-12T19:34:00.000-04:002009-05-12T19:34:00.000-04:00thats awful, hope you are doing well...
