Walking along the sidewalk on Broadway between 86th and 87th, a bearded and unkempt middle-aged man muttering to himself suddenly threw a bottle into the street that shattered into a thousand pieces as cars were driving by.

On the same corner a month or two ago, a younger man bumped into me, looked me over, spat out something anti-Semitic — and when I kept walking said, “Just like you Jews not to fight for yourselves.”

These three anecdotes are all examples of what made living in pre-Giuliani New York City so problematic. It wasn’t crime per se that made you uncomfortable (even at the height of its troubles, New York had a lower per-capita crime rate than other US cities). No, the problem was a general feeling of menace — the sense that violence could break out around you at any moment.


Uh......ever been to NYC? Its always been like this. This reporter is simply playing with you wingers.
