    A neighbor called the police on a 12-year-old boy mowing grass. “If they would have been four white children, the police would not have been called."https://nyti.ms/2z2D1iC

        So Lawnmower Lisa is actually Linda Krakora of Maple Heights, Ohio and she refers to her black neighbors as "garbage"

        It’s unreal and completely unacceptable that Lawnmower Linda felt comfortable enough to tell the NYT reporter “her neighbor was garbage “. How is someone that ugly inside to be able to label their neighbor as “garbage “ to a reporter?

        People calling the cops on Blacks for no good reason is not a recent trend; publicly shaming them for it is. John Crawford III and Tamir Rice are just a couple of examples of what can result when those calls are completed and the police respond.

        We need to get the name Linda Krakora out in order to shame her behavior, & for her disgusting words from the NYT article; “the police were called on the garbage I have next door,” Ms Krakora said HEY LINDA, ITS NOT OK TO TELL A REPORTER YOU THINK YOUR BLACK NEIGHBOR IS GARBAGE

        This awful neighbor (Linda Krakora) who called the police, also called her black neighbor “garbage “. We are not dealing with a nice person, Linda Krakora is an awful person who feels fine with telling a reporter from the NYT’s that her neighbor should be labeled as garbage.

        In their defense, they’d have also called the police if they hadn’t mowed the grass.

        There are cranky people. It isn't necessarily about race. I grew up in all white neighborhood and we had a couple of crazy old timeers yell at us for making too much noise or take a ball if it strayed into their yard.

        This horrible woman called the mother of the child “garbage” to the NYT reporter. Don’t give this awful person any cover by labeling her merely cranky. This situation is not a case of grumpiness, it’s beyond that.
