Police Code 51-50

Scott Walker December 4, 2015

The tattoo on his inner lip read, “51-50.” However, it was starting to fade. “I can’t see it,” he told another man, “I haven’t figured out how to pull my lip up to my eyes [laughing].” The other man giggled and said, “It reads I’m Gay, I think you should get your money back.”

“So what does 51-50 mean,” I asked with curiosity. “It is police code in California for a crazy person,” he told me with a chuckle. I did not want to question it as he towered over me and I am 6’2”.

“Sometimes you have to go a little crazy before you can find sanity. I think I'm close.” ― Tawny Lar
