The citizens of this town love and appreciate those who protect and serve. <br /><br />Regardless of what you are reading, there are people here who care.

Headlines this morning say 13 have been shot so far this weekend in Chicago. Terrible numbers. I used to have a good friend, Johnnie Cochran, who ran a little glass shop on the east side called Johnnie’s Glass. He was a traditional kind of small businessman. He lived nearby. Had five rental houses near his house and the shop. An old black guy with a great sense of humor, a kind of wisdom, and a strong work ethic. He had a lot of opinions. He hated sagging pants. Hated them. I hung out with him while he fixed a broken double pane window for me just before he was murdered in his shop by a robber who was never identified or arrested. This was not the worst neighborhood, a little east of Emerson and New York. I lived in Irvington just on the other side of Emerson. But Johnnie and I were a lot alike. Landlords. Small businessmen. Getting older. And he would have been the first to pipe up this morning that every person shot in Indianapolis and Chicago so far this weekend was shot by a black man. He hated that. Not a racist. You could never call Johnnie a racist. But a realist. And it saddened him. And he didn’t know how to fix it. But he wasn’t afraid to say things aloud if they were true. He thought nosy, concerned landlords helped keep tenants straight and he hated government Section 8. He didn’t think the city code enforcers had any business trying to run his property and he called them stupid snot nosed kids acting like nazis. He would have hated our worthless city council passing laws to make him register and inspect his property and pay their “fees.” And he would have cried a little over a dead police officer killed at 34th and Forest Lawn by a black man. He would have wondered aloud if the black man’s pants were sagging and if he was a member of a gang. Most people have long forgotten Johnnie. But I still drive by his old shop that stands just about like it always did, empty now, but full of memories and windows repaired by Johnnie but never picked up. And I wonder who killed him over ten bucks in petty cash and just walked away like it was nothing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-8466282088698859012014-07-06T00:12:49.926-05:002014-07-06T00:12:49.926-05:00Horrible.
