As MiniMe and I were loading our luggage into That’s Not Chinese’s car, for a weekend with CounterCat in the bay area, a couple of hoodlums were cruising the neighborhood.
Unlike That’s Not Chinese and I, these hood rats were clearly not part of a good walking gang. Thus, That’s Not Chinese put her years of watching Law and Order to work, and followed the suspects while I placed a call to police dispatch.
After hanging up with police dispatch, I dispatched the neighborhood posse. Creme Pour Le Femme immediately responded and, within minutes, was on the scene with another neighbor in tow.
Bitchin’ Camaro and Addly deployed their troops and offered surveillance as well as stoopside presence.
Within minutes of sensing trouble, our neighborhood posse’s presence was more than double.
It’s nice to know that I am 1) protected and 2) not the only person willing to stop crime – in and out of uniform.
