A few days ago, I came across this lovely piece of writing adorning a power supply box on 6th St. & K St. (Orleans = Orleans Pl. not New Orleans):

Fuck (unreadable) orleans bitches
Fuck the orleans haters
Orleans don't run shit
The 6th st honnies bang all them out! :)
(Unreadable) got bang out

Last Saturday night, a local stranger burst into a house party on Orleans Pl., immediately followed by a thug (must be that 6th St. poet) who then literally popped a cap in his ass in front of everyone. The victim collapsed on a sofa, but he was only worse off with a sore ass.

I was somewhere else when it happened.

I still don't fear for my safety. The cold truth is almost every crime in the area is black on black. The only homicides on Gally students in history occured on campus—so it could be argued that caucasian students are safer in the 'hood.
