deals... and disorder

the return of drug deals and disorderly conduct returned to sackett street with a vengeance this weekend, and the 76 responded swiftly though not effectively: roll up, ask the loiterers to remove themselves from the property, but no tickets were issued. so the activity will just resume at a later date. luckily, not over this weekend.

we watched a bunch of deals this weekend, cars pulling up, joints passed on stoops...

the return of the disorder

last night, the block returned to old times. up to a dozen disorderly youths hanging out on our stoop, in the middle of the street, on the stoop across the street. wouldn't move when asked, despite the sign. here's a photo of the disorder.

two hoods hotboxing openly in broad daylight, passing a blunt back and forth as families and cute elder couples passed by...

we were about to call it in when they peeled rubber, after littering on the sidwalks.

but we got the license plate and will be reporting it for any outstanding warrants.

weekend update

still (thankfully) quieter in general, but there's still a few stragglers and regular suspects wheelin' and dealin' ... this thug gets in a car, hand shakes all around, something passed back and forth... hm, wonder what? something lit up--could it be a cig? minutes later, homie's out of the car and the car drives off.

that's the way the deal goes down in rapidly gentrifying hampsterdam, bklyn, baby.

things are heating up...

this was a deal last weekend, memorial day weekend.



and here's stoopers passing a joint and loitering/tresspassing, even though they live only a few stoops away.
