    Dear ”38 yr in the hood”:

    The police who patrol around 770 (on the 770 side of Eastern Parkway) are from the 71st (Crown Heights) precinct.

    Once you cross Eastern Parkway, it’s another precinct. This other precinct was the one that was not there when the bochur was assaulted at Schenectedy and S. John’s Place.

  • time to get serious & fight back

    CH, they’ll not stop until WE stop them. That means registered, lawful guns, Bochurim walking in large groups, and anyone who even glances at any of us the wrong way is “escorted” out of the neighborhood.

    They won’t stop until we have a community council that is led by normal, effective people who actually get the respect of the police & our elected officials. Williamsburg is safe. Hasn’t anyone figured out THEIR secret yet? Why can’t we have a safe neighborhood like them?
