personal s*raigh* *alk - in my own fashion - which is open-
book, self enterprising and liber*y loving. Amen. You can
tear i* up - or le* ‘he Mayor cuss, reading i*.
We have been bugged by several members of Black Power.
Since I'm alone in *he shop often - they s*alk in - wan* *he
res* room - jobs (ha, *ha*'s a lavgh) or hats = none of which
we have *o offer, *hank *he Lord. BUT if we did have a private
res* room i* would no* be open *o *he public. I have civil

with my life if necessary. I*s *he principle of “he *hing.
I called *he Police Dep ar*men* *o ask abou* Grim prevention.
Wha* should a bea*-up, skinny 61 year old female do when threatenal
