N.J. Intends to Crack Down on Gangs, Gun Violence

This time we mean it. Really. We're warning you.

Yep. Call neighborhoods "Cease Fire Zones." Dang, is that all it takes?

And, of course, accept no bail money in a brown paper bag.

Peace is at hand.

Have a different scenario in my neighborhood.

Let's just call it "I won't cease fire until your out of my neighborhood zone."

Works pretty well. Used to have a problem with prostitutes, drug dealers and pimps when I first moved in.

Sat outside at night with the 12ga. pump for about six months. Nary said a word to anyone. They heard me LOUD and CLEAR though.

When I notice any activity starting to creep back in. Reemploy the same method. Seems to work every time. Funny how that works, huh?

Resist and they will flee.

That's really pretty witty--Good one!
