S.Klein was vacant for 37 years. Hanhes vacant for 30. Come on fam, people Keep talking about gentrification and not the 40+ years of blight after the riots. Lack of business means lack of jobs means lack of family to support. Same shit they talked about in 1986 is on the table today. SMH.

Everyone is talking about city incentives and all other manner of nonsense.

When people coming in are from the third world, they'll treat it like the third world. Ironbound streets look just like São Paulo. Irvine Turner Bvd looks like a street in Accra. Encourage and educate neighbors to take part in the collective cleaning of our neighborhoods. Each neighbor should be responsible for their part. When kids were on the front porch of my apartment building, smoking that Mary Jane, I went out and told them off. Of course they ran. We have to protect our own city and our planet from folks that have no regard for their environment. Birch slap them (metaphorically of course).

This. The iron corridor runs from Georgia up to Newark. Both the original purchaser and user of the tun need to get the book thrown at them. The original purchaser can claim it was stolen all they want, the purchaser needs to be in jail too if they didn't report that gun stolen.

There's ads all over the place that say "don't buy for the other guy" and yet DA's are willing to drop the gun charges to get an easy plea. Fuck all that. Throw the fucking book at them. Legal gun owners shooting paper for fun is not the same as a punk kid who got "disrespected" by another.
