was a message posted here a few weeks ago—I believe it was from a police “person.”
The message was to contact the police whenever a large group of youth is
wandering through the neighborhood, the implication being—or perhaps
stated—that such groups are usually not up to any good.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>I agree! I love living here and the greatest
part about it, is that we can walk around. I saw these kids that day
walking on both side of the street on 27th Calvert. I would say about 15
or 20 of them. They were loud enough for me to stop and look out the
window. I guess when this beating happen there were people at the bus
stop and did nothing. Two friends of ours came out with their dog and
tried to scare them away. I feel scared, but I don't want to stay in the
house. Maybe a block party/meeting so we could get to know each
other. I just moved in the area in Nov. I know my neighbors next
door and behind and a few here and there. I would love to be more
connected. <br>

quite sorry that<br>
the police are giving people such advice as not to walk alone! Are<br>
citizens all supposed to stay cowering inside their homes or offices and<br>
to desert our sidewalks and yards, leaving them only to thugs? How does<br>
an empty community make life better for anyone?<br>
<br>
Better advice would be for all of us to come outside our houses, sit on<br>
our porches, walk in the neighborhood, be a presence, get to know our<br>
neighbors, and watch out for one another.<br>
