If you look back....it was for roughly a decade....end of the 1960s to the end of the 1970s....where the drug traffic and crime had escalated. Prior to mid-1960s....it was all petty crime on the streets of NY City. A few murders here and there.

The very unreverend $harpton is ready to use his Black Power racist card. His Black Power Racist card is approved by Herr Obama, Herr Holder and DeBlasio. Of course American tax payers of all colors will pay for any riot costs due to his use of his Black Racist Power Card.

Was thinking about taking my wife and daughter to NY to catch a couple of shows as a Christmas present. I have now decided I will not put any of my dollars into that cesspool under any circumstances.
