Sorry, I just can't resist.

Cite?

And remember, the lack of reporting of it is *not* proof.


Sure, here you go, now lets see your cites of the notion you have that
crime is rampant....

Notice this part:

There was little sign of a crime wave, although police made multiple
arrests in the city Monday and Tuesday, officials said. Charges included
burglary, criminal mischief and trespassing. In one incident, three men
were arrested on burglary charges after they struck a Radio Shack in
Rockaway Beach, Queens, on Tuesday morning.

Bloomberg promised "a very heavy police presence" in the darkened
neighborhoods, which include much of Manhattan south of the Empire State
Building, from the East River to the Hudson River. Even outside the
blackout areas, police deployed vans and patrol cars with their roof
lights on, along with officers on the streets in a robust show of force.

NOTHING like the debacle that was New Orleans.
