Good turnout at the neighborhood watch meeting. The best thing was hearing about all the issues that concern the neighbors.

Some of those issues include: drug/gang activity in the park; cars running stop signs on Precita and other traffic hazards (like the Alabama / Precita intersection), car break-ins, etc.

One of the interesting things that came up is that there is far more car break-ins than are bring reported to the police - based on neighbors seeing broken windows and glass.

If there are any problems you want to make others aware of, post a comment to this message.

Not exactly right in Precita Valley, but still disturbingly close according to
SFgate:

The most recent shooting was reported around 3:20 a.m. Sunday in the Mission District area of Treat Avenue and 23rd Street, police said. Three victims with gunshot wounds were found and transported to San Francisco General Hospital, where one was pronounced dead and the other two remained in critical condition, police said.

What is up with all the shootings lately? There seems to be a lot of anger out there right now.
