Yesterday, I received a letter in the mail. I wanted to include it in it's scanned form, but I don't think you can really read it. So here's a picture, with the text to follow. I have nothing to add to this because it's just too brilliant on it's own. I have no idea who sent it, but with the poor spelling/grammar/punctuation I can only imagine it's a professional. It had no return address.
Tenants of 50 Lincoln Road.
It has become apparent that THIEVES and RAPISTS are living among us. The Police at the 71st precinct are aware of this problem and have "50 Lincoln Rd" as one of there "BEATS" in our neighborhood, which includes Officers making periodic spot checks to ensure quality of life issues are being uphold. It is for our SAFETY that we corporate with these Officers, who are not always 100% courteous but will get the job done if you happen to face any of the "Low Lives" that are terrorizing our "Homes and our Children." Home Invasions and Rapes are on the rise and you need to protect your homes and family. The Cops have taken back the streets now these "Low Lives" are operating indoors {men/boys who hang around smoking weed}, in groups of 3s and 4s "Breaking into Apartments," stealing anything they can possibly sell. Things to look for;
1. "Look outs" {men between the ages of 16-35} who stand blocking the only entrance/exit of 50 Lincoln Rd, all day long watching your every move.
2. These folks stand across the street as well for hours at a time engaging in the same activity, stalking you or your children {seeing you leave/return & if your kids are home alone}.
3. Don't get into the elevator with any one who has been standing in front of the building waiting for you to open the door. {"Look Outs" conveniently hold doors for you & ride with you to your floor, just to see where you go}. Stairway should be safer.
4. "Look Outs" often live in the building where they commit their crimes or have friends who do.
5. "Look Outs" also listen for sounds of Tenants leaving their Apartments to see where you live.
6. If the Lobby's door is jammed with any object, it would be helpful to release it for the safety of all the law abiding Tenants of 50 Lincoln.
7. Change your routine every so often or get someone to check on your apartment if you live alone or work long hours.
8. If you know anyone who does not live in the building and is seen sitting or lying around, call 911 and have them removed.
9.Stay clear of two known African American male characters who frequent our lobby; (a) Tall 6'2 slim built, 180lb dark complexion with short dreads. (b) Slender built 5'9 dark complexion with breads or a pony-tail, 165lbs. Thanks, & Please Pass This On.
My pleasure! It just writes itself.
