This sucks. I am glad I only signed a 6 month lease, but moving all this shit to a new apartment is going to be hard.
Apparently a few days ago some kids were messing with cars in the parking lot, trying to break in. They tried to get into my car but couldn’t but they broke the window of a neighbors car. they also tried to break into another neighbors car.
Now I leave for a few hours and when I get back I find gang signs drawn all over the hallway. I’ve lived here a few months, up until this point things like this were never a problem.
And I’m wondering since I reported the car vandalism thing to management if that just means that I will be facing more retaliation. That sucks. I mean I’m ready for it, but I’d rather not have to wake up and find all my windows busted or my car covered in graffiti.
I am paranoid. there are only 4 apartments in the hallway, so I figured by the process of elimination they’d come to me. I don’t really fit in in this apartment complex. I’d suspect me.
Of course I don’t know how good these people’s inductive reasoning skills are since a few tagged their names.
Get someone to help you read the graffiti, because sometimes they are leaving important messages. For example, an unsuspecting soul did not know to avoid a street which was plainly labeled STREET OF DEATH (in graffiti) and unfortunately suffered the consequences.
True. I recognize which gang the graffiti is affiliated with, however some of the other gang names are new to me. But the graffiti is tied to a pretty big gang here in the midwest.
Maybe you could procure translations from a neighbor who is familiar with the language of graffiti taggers, yet not so familiar as to be a threat to your existence. Good luck with that.
