.I Saw You: Doos and Don’ts

Not all heroes wear capes. Not all heroes carry adamantium shields or swing Asgardian hammers. The one in my block wears cargo shorts, and his weapon of choice: some orange washable spray chalk. He doesn’t break up gang fights or thwart package thieves from running away with your latest Amazon shipment. His skill, his expertise, his crime fighting prowess is writing the word “STOP” in big bold letters with the “O” circling unpicked-up dog shit—a growing trend that’s been plaguing this neighborhood.This brave sneaker savior is striking fear in the hearts of dog-walking scofflaws, letting them know that he’s got a bone to pick if they don’t give enough of a crap about picking up shit. So if you think you can let your dog defecate on the streets and yards where our children play, better beware. The Banksy of Dog Dung is out there, a do-gooder fighting the doodoo-ers.

I Saw You is an anonymous “man on the street” column. Email your rants and raves about co-workers or any badly behaving citizens to iS*****@me*******.com, or send to 380 S. First St, San Jose, 95113. Submissions should stick to about 100 words.
