Has NYC's crime rate dropped so low...
...that they can spare the men and resources for a dog and pony act like THIS?
Looks like there are some priority issues here, folks.
I gotta doff my own Reynoldswrap Stetson to Alexander Solzhenitsyn(sp?) regarding this one.
In his once-outlawed book, "The Gulag Archipeligo", he wrote that the Soviet government's paranoia about the citizenry had reached such a degree during WWII that individual soldiers were being pulled off the line IN THE MIDDLE OF BATTLES with the Nazis and shipped off to Siberia for being suspected as dissentors.(sp? once again)
How's that for realistic priorities?
A previous poster mentioned the prospect of parades. That thought entered my tin-covered mind as well, bringing up memories of newspaper pictures of the russians parading mobile missiles and such. Were those parades to demontrate to the people, "Look how safe you are" or was it to remind them that they're under a huge thumb and better just keep on swilling the Kool-Ade like a good little worker bee?
Now factor in NYC's mayor Bloomberg's illegal ATF forays into other states.
These guys think they're above the law, it appears.
Can someone say, "control freaks"?
I don't like it, folks. Nope, just don't like it at all.
Not a sign of good things to come for NYC, I fear.
