nothing new here in milwaukee,same old same old,oh yeah i forgot,we did have a shooting here tuesday evening.seems like a young couple who just moved here,well their friend was involved in a scrape with the latin kings and i dont mean the mombo group!! shots rang out,and i thought they were fireworks,mr.d-ick informed me that it was gunshots,i literally threw andrew,my grandson to the floor behind the sofa and preceded to go out on the porch,when one of the persons,ran past me.mr.d-ick then yelled for me to get back in. well to make a long story short,there were two spanish guys looking for the guy that ran past me,they were out to shoot him,instead they shot another friend and his dog.rite thru his leg,passing thru his testicles and the bullet lodged in his other leg.it was horrific,i tell you,the young man was crying for help,i asked him if he was shot,he said yes,i had aready called 911 and so did my neighbors.we were all actually afraid to go too near the house as we didnt know if the shooters were still there. within minutes there were police all over the place firetrucks and finally the ambulance came last.i guess the police have to secure the area before the emts come in.anyway all is quiet here,now,found out that someone was running a chop shop out of the garage.its a home that has an absentee landlord.usually this is a quiet neighborhood,but this really stirred things up. now who wants to come over and have a beef sandwich!!! love and hugs mindy p s

The sure sounds like they had all the good stuff. Yumm, nothing like italian food...viva italiana!
Hav to many bad memeries of the riot here. My brother and many others were serious injured. Over turned ambulances and squad crs set on fire. Mobs in the streets with the soul intent of causing harm. Those were scary days Mindy. My brother has a reminder everytime he looks in the mirror, a scar from his nose the the top of his head. Split his head wide open.
My prayer is we find a way for peace and a sense of security once again.
Hugs,
Rain
