re: #364 Dark_Falcon

The difference is that in New York the yahoos tend to go away after the police start throwing nets over them. Their numbers are also small enough that if they step severely over the line they’ll simply be arrested by a ‘blue flood’ of cops. The Cairo police didn’t have ComStat nor the NYPD’s monitoring of social networks.

Why yahoos, and why is the response by NYPD not reviled? Really, netting people and then macing them?
