ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) — Rochester Police Officers say they cleared out Ontario Beach Park Monday night after fights broke out.

RPD says the first fight broke out at around 8 p.m. on the pier. The captain at the scene said a command post was already set up, because incidents like this seem to happen at the park every Memorial Day weekend.

Hmmm no social distancing or masks here. Probably the same annual agitators of the Weyl St. fights. https://13wham.com/news/local/two-stabbed-in-massive-brawl-in-rochester-neighborhood

Half the population in Rochester doesn't believe in rules. And Mayor Lovely could be the symbol for a "I hate whitey" ad. The graduation rate in the city is about 50%. One of the worst rates in the nation.

Rochester was a great city when I was a kid. That's a VERY long time ago.

I've lived in Ra-cha-cha for 50+ years. Believe me, this is not news ... same old, same old.

As I recall Jack Benny’s Rochester was born in Syracuse. But those were the days.

You can forget this one from 2013.

The Ridge-Culver Regal Cinemas in Irondequoit was shut down late Friday night after police from multiple departments responded to a fight that spilled over from inside the theater and out into the street, reportedly involving up to 500 people.

It's much safer and quieter living in the town next to the town "Where life is worth living."

Rochester was born in California.

Not in the skit where jack asks him where he was born.

[Sacajaweau]

Probably just to make a connection to Rochester NY.

Sorry...he was born in Ca in 1905.

Jack asks Rochester, were you born in Rochester?
Rochester says, no sir M. Benny I was born in Syracuse.
Jack says, so how come your parents didn’t name you Syracuse. Rochester says, Oh come on Mr. Benny, everybody knows Syracuse is a girls name.

the town "Where life is worth living."

That’s the motto of a town on the other side of the bay.

I knew a women who didn’t sell and move in time... got stuck in a high crime neighborhood. Luckily her sons had enough money to get her out and dump what had become a worthless house... Seeing the truth is not a form of racism.

Thanks, but I knew that. The town was worth living in if you liked lousy water.

Webster has switched over to Monroe County Water and those wells have all been shut down. It took a change of administration to get it done.
