Remember the hugh blackout (was it last year?)anyway...well like on 9/11 I was in Manhattan... Let me tell you, all other major cities would be lucky if their residents behaved even half as well.

<<When Dinkins was mayor of New York, there were three days of racial riots in Brooklyn. He ordered the police to keep away and avoid provoking the rioters.>>

When the first Mayor Daley was running Chicago in the 60s and there was a riot in Chicago, he went on TV and gave his police the order to "shoot to kill". Stopped that and future riots.
