Baltimore John Watch

For any of you that read this occasionally, you know I tend to not take things to seriously and have a lighthearted, if not crass attitude most times. However, there are some things that command the attention of not only my readership, but also my respect.

Baltimore John Watch is a blog run by (to my knowledge) several Pigtown residents who became so tired of the relentless assault of prostitution and drug dealing in their neighborhood, that they decided to do something about it. They've been watching as far as I can tell, since July of this year, cataloging the license plate numbers of prostitution clients , and taking homemade videos of drug dealings where they live.

While I live in Remington, I still feel this is a cause worth looking at, even if you don't live in Pigtown, because if it gets to the point where you feel your neighborhood is being overrun, you'd want the support too. Even if all you think you can do is read, that's good enough. BJW has a section for those of us online to make our voices heard to those in power, who can do more towards a solution to the problem. So if you can take the time to read this, you can take the time to follow their directions and send off a few emails to those who can help make changes that the good people at BJW work for, a reality. In closing, I'd like to say: nobjforyou, Dac72, BJW, acw, Sebastian-PGP if there were modern analouges for super heroes, they would be you. Stay safe.
