Also, remember the Koch years where gangs of thugs used "Howard Beach" as an excuse to beat up every white kid who crossed their path.

Dinkins I remember for the graffitti and the fact that thugs were mugging folks in broad daylight on THE UPPER EAST SIDE!

Remember "White Night"???

My neighborhood was all Italian/American so we never had any probs if you know what I mean. We had our local lucchese crime family farm team in my hood so things were kept cool in that area.

Remember the Crown Heights riot?

My nephew was right out of the Police Academy. He was assigned there, but Dinkins wouldn't let the cops go in.

He was a disgrace.
