“It takes a neighborhood. That’s what they said this year as a theme for the annual National Night Out observed by more than than 50 different neighborhoods in Suffolk. I’m fortunate to live where such action is not necessary, trouble free with a populaton of individuals sophisticated enough to want to keep it that way, effortless as it may be. Frankly I believe it is due to the fact that zoning forced us to live on three or more acres. If a crime was committed we might not notice. Not bragging, just thinking of how many quarter acre lots the city has allowed in the past and how many remain unsold. How big is an acre? Put four houses on one and all four owners get to know each others family well, even if they never meet.

IT TAKES A POLICE FORCE
"For thousands, Tuesday night was the biggest neighborhood block party of the year. neighbors came out to meet one another, and friends got together in the annual celebration of their shared desire to fight crime in Suffolk."

With all the crime in Suffolk these days, so we really have a police farce? It seems our highpowered police chief is struggeling to make it right and do the job. I remember the fiasco about the guy that called crime-stoppers and had his name and address handed out to the criminal. Any news on that law-suit?
