Neither more nor less

Diane's charitable ministry had just fed a couple of hundred folks in Tompkins Square Park. Her team of volunteers was packing up tents , tables , leftovers and other paraphernalia  ,when in the middle of avenue A red lights began flashing .

Jewels was  exposing himself again .The red lights dimmed as Diane approached Jewels . 2 cops from the patrol car approached Jewels from the opposite direction . Diane told Jewels that he was an asshole and then , clearly angered , mentioned something to him about being annoyed by having to witness a man with a small penis .The cops told Jewels  to pull up his pants , walk to the sidewalk and sit down .

Out front of Ray's closed candy store the cops made it clear that they didn't want to be bothered with the boy wonder of avenue A .They lectured Jewels a bit  about proper behavior , after all there are children on the avenue , but  did not cuff him or even write him a summons . Jewels later claimed that the cops had told him  , as they looked him straight in the face ,  that the next time they caught him with his pants down they would just beat him to death .
