Now, sadly, I visit this site to read the bilious trolling in the comments in order to feel somewhat better about having moved away from you awful people.Doug S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18098102518378932120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-10531606287561452122014-06-18T11:44:00.588-04:002014-06-18T11:44:00.588-04:00Love the blame the victim pile on.

Great to see the a-hole contingent making sure people know just how undesirable you people are as neighbors. <br /><br />If any of you are considering moving out the neighborhood please do. I'll even help you move just as long as you promise never to come back.Robnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-91827726845317685092014-06-18T08:49:57.010-04:002014-06-18T08:49:57.010-04:00Lock or no lock, it is he thief fault for stealing...Lock or no lock, it is he thief fault for stealing.

He routinely left an unlocked, expensive bicycle (that had a kryptonite type lock mounted to a bracket on the bike frame but that was negligently not in use at the time of the theft) in the common hallway of a multi-tenant building where non-residents routinely travel, and he's claiming that the theft of his bike is an indicator that crime is increasing in our neighborhood. It's really only an indicator of his negligence. That bike was eventually going to be stolen regardless of the neighborhood.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14705838232235541346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-50106867356265609682014-06-17T18:36:15.616-04:002014-06-17T18:36:15.616-04:00A bicycle in a hallway surely violates fire code, ...A bicycle in a hallway surely violates fire code, no?
