What an excellent presentation last night! I was among 80+ fellow residents who was shocked at the sight of our very own teenagers and young adults throwing up Gang Signs in photos they obviously took of themselves and somehow made their way to Albany.

We have to wake up as a community and call the authorities when they are up to no good. If we don't, we run the risk of our neighborhood turning into the outer Boros in terms of crime. I surely don't want that & I'm sure my fellow residents don't either.
