/src on/Mission Accomplished De Blasio/src off/By the time De Blasio is done Hollywood might start making those 1970s "NYC Going to Hell" movies like "The Warriors", and "Escape From New York". Does Kurt Russell still have enough in the tank to play Snake Plisken again? To all those freaks who pine for the days of gritty NYC when Times Square was owned by drug addicts, prostitutes, and the like I hope you are happy when your perverted nostalgia meets reality.

It’s time for a grassroots Bring back “Mayor Rudy Giuliani” effort.

It’s nothing like it was 40 years ago. 40 years ago people like John Lindsay or Abe Beam didn’t take sides against the cops but then again, back then politicians in NYC weren’t the punk ass America hating commie mofos they are today.

We can thank the Kenyan, Holder, Sharpton and a cast of flying monkeys for the cop-hater agenda. These pathetic slugs are lost beyond comprehension. God Bless law enforcement across the nation!

I liked the old Times Square because it had old theaters that were ripped down and replaced with ugly skyscrapers and giant neon lights that would embarrass Tokyo. I hate those giant box stores selling garbage from Disney. Where’s the old Drama Book Store?! I do love that they saved and refurbished the amazing New Amsterdam theater, though. In the old days, Times Square had good, inexpensive Chinese and kitschy Hawaiian/Tropical restaurants and newspaper kiosks that sold magazines from around the world and, yes, the occasional nut menacing moviegoers at the Criterian with a machete. I was a witness to that one. As my NYer brother always says about the new Times Square: Mr. Potter won.

But I’ll forgive Mr. Guiliani for that if he’ll just run again.

There's a reason everything old is new again. Read The Fourth Turning by Strauss and Howe. And trust me, it ain't good news. This cycle is going to be a doozie.

It was my understanding that WHITE officers were to be the target. The idiot killed a Chinese-American and an Hispanic. Was the killer on drugs?

“Who would’ve ever thought déjà vu all over again, that we would be back where we were 40-some-odd years ago,”

Who indeed. How about any responsible adult with an IQ over 80? Bratton stinks of spin. He has been sent out by de Blasio’s PR team to sell the idea that the murders were not predictable from the actions of his communist master. Not buying.

To the tune of “Windy”:

Who’s walking down the streets of Fun City
Smiling at every mugger he sees?
Who’s putting all the junkies on welfare?
Everyone knows it’s Lindsay.

DeBlasio is bringing back that ear, and that is not good. I didn’t think it was possible to make John Lindsay look good. Comrade DeBlasio is trying hard, though.

That’s what happens when Marxist Socialistic Progressive Liberals take power.

You want tension? Try the US Army in Germany circa 1970.

It was very, very tense. I served as co-chairman of an enlisted study committee, reporting to a general.

The effort was mainly a ploy for the military to be able to say they did something about “the problem,” which was in effect ‘we studied it and there is really no problem.’
