Cause & Effect
A few days ago I wrote about the drug dealers on this street and the incident of Big Guy essentially breaking into the apartment, probably not for the first time and likely for “business” related dealings.
What I didn’t mention is that I later contacted the local precinct about it. And not anonymously. And yeah I know about anonymous, but I also feel anonymous is a free pass to nonresponse in many cases. Sad to say I have zero confidence in the precinct. Oh, there is a lot of rhetoric about people like myself, as citizens, calling in illegal activities. But the verbal spew we hear from the police is, in general, far different from the actual response. Neighbors tell me this particular corner has been a drug sales location for twenty years.
I don’t really wish to point a finger here. All I can say is I reported this to the precinct on Friday. And yesterday when I went to water the plants there was a big fat rat with a severed head lying under the spigot located on the side of the house in the driveway. People in the neighborhood know I alone water the front yard plants. Most people also know we have security cameras in the front of the house. In the four plus years I have lived here I have never even seen a rat nor evidence of a rat. So maybe I am being paranoid, but maybe I have been warned.
No rat photos, sorry but way too disgusting.
