Numbers sanctify
Cops are getting killed, left and right in my fine city. Crime is up.
I have a theory. Back when Giuliani was mayor, you got busted for littering or jaywalking. People had to respect the law. Now, with scores of people dying from bombs each day, and the public pretty much immune to it, it’s hard to take things like littering seriously.
The price of a life currently less than $20 here in the big city.
Wars, conflict, it’s all business. One murder makes a villain. Millions a hero. Numbers sanctify.
