These folks have been on the TV news about once a week all summer.
It's run by the Squirrel Hill Urban Coalition (I love the name; sounds
like a Marxist organization).

Basically, people slap a magnetic sticker on the side of their own
car, and drive around the neighborhood looking for "suspicious"
events.  They are not to take any action or get out of the car, but
simply call the cops, and be a "presence", to make people feel safer.

The city thinks it's great, acording to the PR.
