TAKING BACK THE PARKS
Incidents such as “wilding” in our parks are the clearest signals that there are people who don’t regard themselves akin to the rest of society in any way, who wish us ill. The citizenry is bullied, forced indoors after dark, robbed in the streets, raped. I submit that, with close to 2 million men in the armed services, a few might be detailed to instead parade in our parks. That way the beleagered residents might have at least one public place that is truly free.
