Latent racism in Ann Arbor!

involved "Neighborhood Watch" groups, with 'Block Captains' and coordination between neighbors and with the SJPD...it also included signage. I was a board member of our local Association. It's a good thing and while the signage helps, it's not the Be All and End All. What really counts is for neighbors to get educated on how to make their homes more resistant to crime, and have active coordination between neighbors, which can wane over time, as happened with ours. Btw, our neighborhood has over time become quite diverse...and accepting, with annual "Multicultural Picnics" where residents bring food to share from their cultural heritage...i.e. no racism...and very well attended.

As for Ann Arbor, hopefully they continue to actively engage in the education and communication aspects of Neighborhood Watch...and be willing to change their approach to signage, should crime statistics rise.

Pumping this 'Watching Out for Crime' issue a few levels, I can't help but roll my eyes at Trump supporters who don't raise an eyebrow when DJT fires 17 Inspectors General and suspends Reporting on Stock Market "Short Sales" until the end of his term in office...seems just a bit incongruous to me.

Most politicians make no secret who they are.
