Being the amazing, true-to-life adventures and (very likely) misadventures of a writer who seeks to take his education, activism and seemingly boundless energy to North Minneapolis, (NoMi) to help with a process of turning a rapidly revitalizing neighborhood into something approaching Urban Utopia. I am here to be near my child. From 02/08 to 06/15 this blog pushed free speech to the envelope, so others could take heart and speak unafraid. Email me at hoffjohnw@gmail.com

Retaliation Comes, Finally, On 6th St. N.

As expected, some form of retaliation happened on 6th St. N. in light of the massive police raid on "2207." According to a source in that part of the neighborhood...
...on Sunday night, yesterday, somebody tried to throw a rock through the patio door window of one of the decent people who lives on the block. However, the rock missed the window. It still broke some siding, however. Police were called and responded within minutes, but apparently nobody was caught. There is doubt whether the retaliation will cease with one badly-thrown rock.
A block club meeting had taken place at the residence in question some hours before. The meeting was to discuss all the goings-on happening lately, including the raid on 2207.

That means that they (the good neighbors) are having an impact.
I tend to look at it the same way.
So do we. Once this mess is resolved, you're going to see some huge improvements in our little hunk of Hawthorne. We're pumped!
