[quote=Anonymous]PP who noted the "bad house" phenomenon.  You are spot on in many respects and make a lot of good points.  I live on Morris Place and have a child at LT. One point I'd add is that not *all* of the "new neighbors" hesitate to call the police.  Some of us new neighbors have no white guilt, sometimes because we're not even white :-)

We have called the police on many occasions and will continue to do so.  When my husband spoke to the police officer on watch the other night, he encouraged us to call every time there is a dice game (not just when we suspect durg dealing) because "there's a gun at most dice games".

But Morris is a small street, not many houses, so I'm hoping that anyone who cares about this neighborhood and this school -- if you see a dice game or suspicious activity on Morris Place, please call the police!  We neighbors will be calling too.  The more people who call, the more times police come by, the faster this street and schoolyard will become a place where  open-air-mens-club-dice-playing-sometimes-dealing-visitors no longer want to loiter.

I'm going to post this to MOTH as well and ask more neighbors to alert police whenever they see suspicious activity around LT.[/quote]
