This page was originally created when Rudy Giuliani was mayor of New York City. The language here reflects that fact.
More and more folks are becoming alarmed at Mayor Rudy Giuliani's reign of terror in New York City. He has clamped down on sidewalk artists, cabbies, squatters, community gardening activists, and just about anybody else that provides an alternative to the interests of the rich and powerful. Giuliani's push to improve New York's "quality of life" is just a form of friendly fascism that many find easy to like because it is aimed at THOSE PEOPLE. Giuliani's recent battles against sidewalk vendors and cabbies also shows how racist Giulianism can be. Don't think that this is all the result of one fascist politician; it will be coming soon to your town.
Don't forget to wave at the security cameras installed in your neighborhood for your safety.
