Don’t blame a Dabney Drive music store for the intimidating graphic making the rounds in South Henderson.
That’s the word from a store employee on the job Friday afternoon at Big Katt, which is in a strip mall across the street from the Central Fire Station
A composite graphic image built around the central slogan “Henderson Flint Hill Stop Snitchin’ ” was the subject of angry discussion by the Vance County Coalition Against Violence on Thursday night. The image uses a stop sign in an apparent mocking of the coalition’s “Stop the Violence” logo.
The image supposedly is a T-shirt design, although it’s not clear that anyone has seen such a T-shirt in Henderson.
What was clear to coalition members Thursday night was the image’s purpose: to intimidate police and residents of Flint Hill, who already must cope with a murder in the neighborhood during the week.
Police Chief Glen Allen sent the rectangular composite image to several people in an e-mail message this week in hopes of discovering its origins.
One possible clue is in the bottom left corner, which reads, “Big Katt Tapes & CD’s is taking over the South.”
“We’re not the only Big Katt,” store employee John Jenkins said Friday, noting, for example, the existence of a Big Katt in Raleigh.
The proprietor of the Henderson store was not available Friday afternoon, but Jenkins said the store has nothing to do with the anti-snitching graphic.
He said he had heard about the image but had not seen anyone wearing such a T-shirt, which he called “terrible” for condoning violence.
Jenkins said the violence that cost Lajuan Wilkins his life Tuesday night in a Maple Street home is senseless. “We all know each other,” he said. “We all went to school together.”
