Has anyone ever seen the end of “Gangs of New York”? That’s how to end a riot.

I always wanted to see that movie as I read the book but I heard the movie is completely different. The book was unreal, it was more of a book on history.

It talked about the New York city draft riots in which they actually lynched cops, lynched blacks, stabbed the police superintendant 70 times - and he lived - killed horses and burned down an orphanage for black kids which is where the NY Public library now stands.

It should have happened in Seattle, in Portland, Minneapolis and every time these people pop their heads up.

My husband loved that movie and watches it often. I think I understand which scene(s) you’re referring to.

Frank Rizzo had a pretty good handle on effective methods, too.

Giuliani did a good job with Broken Windows.
