HYANNIS – [HN NOTES] – At times it was busy and volatile last evening. On the four-to-midnight, Barnstable Police Officers approached a house with guns drawn after a report of an unwanted male reportedly scaring others with a firearm. There was also a felony stop and individuals were detained while the investigation unfolded. HN expects to release video footage of that commotion later on, if there’s time.

Perhaps the loudest and most “ghetto-mouthed” moments of the overnight happened shortly after midnight inside the Cumberland Farms parking lot on Route 132. As you will see and hear in the following HN Video, a Barnstable Police Patrolman radioed for a second cruiser immediately after encountering two males and a female near the Cumby’s gas pumps. Once receiving clarification on the exact location, multiple Barnstable squad cars rushed to assist…

… and HN arrived shortly thereafter.

A barrage of common ghetto vernacular could be heard across the sunset-side of Hytown as the two obviously irate males emphasized – “on dead dawgs!” – their obvious dissatisfaction with the level of customer service they had been receiving from officers on scene. “On dawgs” is meant as a powerful exclamation, not to be tossed about lightly. The term is believed to have first originated out of one the street dialects spoken in and around the Columbia Point section of Boston, Massachusetts. “Dawgs” are homies. And “on dead dawgs” is akin to swearing on a deceased homie’s life! So yeah, it’s an extremely serious reaction, probably just as serious as swearing on the lives of one’s children, which is another popular expression used across the Eastern Massachusetts Ghetto-sphere.

Thankfully, there were several cops on scene sufficiently able to translate and decipher “Eastern Ghetto,” which is probably one of the fastest growing languages in the entire country. In the 70s, “Jive Talkin’” was the language of the emerging inner-city crowds. But ever since the full evolution of modern rap, golden grills, and the appearance of “hood rats,” Eastern Ghetto has been the dialect of choice across the entire Ghetto-sphere, and beyond. Eastern Ghetto is a popular, colorful language that arguably should be taught at Community Colleges for boomers or basically anyone who wishes to travel and communicate with individuals who primarily speak it amongst their own dawgs and homies.  If you could speak and understand a little Jive Talkin’ in the 70s, a few courses in Eastern Ghetto would likely prove enjoyable and worthwhile.

As you will see, a young adult male was arrested for Assault on a Police Officer with Dangerous Weapon, along with Threatening to Commit a Crime. A second young male is to be criminally summonsed for the alleged possession of a spring assisted knife.

“On dead dawgs, indeed!” I’d be lying if I told you the following HN Video was completely drama free!
