    I AM SURE THE COPS ARE GOING TO BE THERE SOON TO GIVE HIM A TICKET FOR HAVING A CAR NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND LITTERING GLASS ON THE SIDEWALK

    Relative calm of a few months….sounds like a pattern

    seems like Deal has Solomon Dreck and we have Dreck Nelson.

    If I am correct, then expect 90 more days of relative safety from this kind of penny ante stuff by Monday or Tuesday.

    The answer is simple Justice is a revolving door In Ch The police will give you tickets galore cost you money & together with a inept da’s office give these criminals slaps on the wrists until they decide the criminal is one of us then it’s hardball time! Where is our beloved community council/vaad hakhal??? Too busy suing the Rabbonim in court every shop keeper Other Rabbonim that are not part of the Beis din etc. I say enough is enough time for people to take a stand!

    Just because its not reported does not mean there is no trouble. last week 10 cars had their tires slashed over shabbos on montgomery st. i guess they saw they can get away with it so they came back for more and better!

    I trust that the new Vaad and Sperlin will have the breakins stopped by the elections when they talk to Bloomberg.

  • Airbags are easy money

    Nisht Farshtay,
    The reason the air bags are stolen is because they can get up to $1,000 for an intact airbag.

    This is an idea starter for you to develop on, sound activated minicamcorders hidden in the vehicles, may have to find a more appropriate battery length or adaopt it, but hope this helps the ones among you who may become targets.
