The conservatives are foaming at the mouth ! It's great.

Hint to readers: Note the hyperbole. That's how you know someone is not very smart.

Next time, take out your giant iPhone and tap the Bernard Goetz app. He will come to your service.

AFTER 1994, for the edification of your colleague here as well, I was robbed for the first and only time ever. So ... from this, I should conclude that crime increased exponentially after 1994. Right ?

I riled up another conservative though, probably two, and that's fine for me for the night.
I should be nicer, he he.

Mazel tov and done.

No, she doesn't know what the city was like before Giuliani and Bloomberg or will be without a strong mayor, yet, but I expect she will be affected by de Blasio's reign in a very few years if not months.

rudy gets to much credit for the pendulum effect of roe vs wade when would be criminals would be entering their criminal prime crime rates across the nation dropped when rudy took office, he got way to much credit then he desevered. the cause of the crime rate drop mid 90's was the fact that unwanted babies tended to be much more likely to be criminals, and when a large amount were not born 18-25 years later the country is safer... but the right wingers seem to love these little fetuses until they are getting pushed out on the table then they are "welfare babies"

Why you so bitter? Its not a big deal. There was more crime pre-1994 vs post. So what? No need for the name calling. Its childlike.

I do believe that the only person calling names was you.

And I am definitely not bitter. I find it quite amusing.
I shouldn't bait people for fun - it's the devil in me.
