I’m not clicking over to read the whole article, but since the excerpt doesn’t give credit to Rudy G, then I wonder if the rest of the article does so.

Rudy G enforced the law... especially the small ones. When people see the law is enforced, they get in line and the citizenry feels safer.

Didn’t spend a lot on my analysis. How’d I do?

I lived at Fort Hamilton from 1996-1999, and worked in Brooklyn till 2002. Rudy Guiliani hammered the law breakers until a whole lot of them decided to do something else for a living.

I was there in the mid-80’s watching the horror show Manhatten had become.

I used to have NYC layovers when I was flying in the 90s. I walked all over New York alone. One time I even went to a bar in the Village by myself to see some friends whose band was playing there. Got there solo, made it back to the hotel late at night, no problems. Had a great time!

How did it become safe? Ask Rudy and Ray Kelly,his Police Commissioner.

Demoncrats like their cities to be third world sh!tholes.
