Just another trail-marker on the path of the decay of America.
I thought that mail theft was worse than participating in a Fedsurection.
Locked mail boxes.
I was at the post office near the corner of Canoga Ave & Roscoe one morning. I pull in to drop mail off in the drive thru and I saw the mailbox looked like it had a lock on it. I then parked and walked up to the entrance and saw 2 mailboxes but the slot was so narrow. I was standing there with 2 others looking at the boxes.
A guy passing by said go inside so I did and I could drop my mail in the normal box there built into the wall. I came across this article that said the mail boxes have anti-theft protection as people - drug addicts are fishing and pulling out the mail but the narrow slot stops this as only 1 letter at a time can go in.
The slots also have a downward curve to discourage any ‘fishing’....
