And if he becomes President, is he saying that every day with Rudy in charge will be like 9-11?Kelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14466059072530968330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24005214.post-64207814888974776162007-10-30T15:35:00.000+00:002007-10-30T15:35:00.000+00:00um, actually the best explanation I've heard is Ro...um, actually the best explanation I've heard is Roe v. Wade, as discussed in the book Freakonomics, which, like the lead theory, would take about 20 years to take effect, as most criminals tend to be in that young age bracket. <BR/><BR/>it's all moot anyway: cause crime went down, literally everwhere, and was starting to go down in the Dinkins administration before Rudy. Like 911 and everything else, Rudy just takes all the credit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24005214.post-56210386702023839032007-10-29T08:46:00.000+00:002007-10-29T08:46:00.000+00:00Now that's just fucking hilarious.

However, you disregarding something just because you don't like it is hardly scientific proof.<BR/><BR/>And I honestly don't know what you are referring to when you talk of the Dolphins and Giants. Is it baseball? If so, it has had little impact here as I honestly have heard of nothing that's happening.<BR/><BR/>Although I must admit that most Europeans find it a particular American vanity that you have a "world series" of a game which no other country plays.Kelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14466059072530968330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24005214.post-34346603830453066672007-10-29T02:39:00.000+00:002007-10-29T02:39:00.000+00:00Giuliani, the man famous for being New York's Mayo...<I>Giuliani, the man famous for being New York's Mayor on the worst day in it's history, now finds his crime fighting record - of which he is so proud - might have had very little to do with him after all.</I><BR/><BR/>Now that's just fucking hilarious. Unleaded gasoline is responsible for a reduction of crime in NYC that also happened to coincide with the policies of the DA. Absolutely rich. <BR/><BR/>On another note, while happy that we exposed you to the greatest professional sport on the planet this weekend, I must apologize for sending you the Dolphins and the Giants. I'm sorry they suck. Ah well, the World Series of the second greatest sport on the planet is about to get wrapped up by the Boston Red Sox. Good times.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12232859136696019214noreply@blogger.com
