No Loitering At Hawthorn (Sic) Crossings Strip Mall? That's A Laugh!



Blame Brian Thao Worra and his Facebook discussion about overdosing on shamrock shakes. I got a powerful hankerin' for a shamrock shake, so I walked to McDonalds at Hawthorn (Sic) Crossings strip mall. If I wanted, I could have bought something green in the parking lot, as well.

The photo above shows...

...a NO LOITERING sign at Hawthorn (Sic) Crossings. This is, of course, a bitter joke. Very little BESIDES loitering seems to happen at Hawthorne (Sic) Crossings. Just a few blocks away, near 29th and Aldrich, two children were caught in gunfire, probably violence fueled by the drug trade. Meanwhile, this strip mall is a pus-filled reservoir of drug trade activity, taking place in plain sight. And the mall management appears to simply look the other way.

The shamrock shake was pretty good, though.

Mentioning pus and shamrock shakes in the same post kind of makes me ill!
