Nowadays, these Israeli criminals

I wonder how Gauvin thunk up that
"death threat" allegation, since it's
a total mimic of what these Israeli

Children of the ’70s
By DAVID BROOKS
Today you can walk around the Upper West Side of Manhattan in such
ease and safety that you could get the impression it was always this
way. But it wasn’t.
On July 5, 1961, a gigantic brawl broke out on 84th Street between
Amsterdam and Columbus Avenues. Two policemen, caught in the middle,
fired warning shots into the air to stop the fighting, but a mob of
400 engulfed them. Traffic was halted on Columbus as bottles rained
down from tenement houses, lye was thrown into one man’s face and
knives flashed out.
That section of 84th Street in those days was one of the most
dangerous blocks in the city. The Times described it as “a block of
decaying tenements packed with poor Puerto Rican and Negro families
and the gathering place of drunks, narcotics addicts and sexual
perverts.” A local minister, James Gusweller, said there were five or
six stabbings every Saturday night.
The violence built and built. Through the ’60s and ’70s, crime surged.
John Podhoretz captures the atmosphere of that time in a wonderful
essay called “Life in New York, Then and Now” in the current issue of
Commentary. He describes the Upper West Side of his youth as a unique
small town, an integrated mixture of professors and psychoanalysts,
teachers and social workers, workers and the unemployed.
It was wonderful in some ways, but people in all classes lived in
fear. “Mugging was nothing unusual. Everybody got mugged,” Podhoretz
writes. A serial killer nicknamed Charlie Chop-Off menaced the Upper
West Side, emasculating little boys and then killing them, and such
was the general disorder that his crimes were barely mentioned in the
city’s newspapers.
The city tried “slum clearance” to reduce the mayhem. Brownstones were
torn down; 709 households were removed from 84th Street alone. More
than 6,000 households were removed from the area between 87th and 97th
Streets.
Crime did not abate. Passivity set in, the sense that nothing could be
done. The novel “Mr. Sammler’s Planet” by Saul Bellow captured some of
the dispirited atmosphere of that era — the sense that New York City
was a place with no-go zones, a place where one hunkered down.
Things are different now, of course. By 1990, 5,641 felonies were
committed in New York City’s 24th Precinct, according to Podhoretz.
Last year, only 987 were.
But some of the psychological effects remain.
We’re familiar with talk about how Vietnam permanently shaped the baby
boomers. But if you grew up in or near an American city in the 1970s,
you grew up with crime (and divorce), and this disorder was bound to
leave a permanent mark. It was bound to shape the people, now in their
40s and early-50s, reaching the pinnacles of power.
It has clearly influenced parenting. The people who grew up afraid to
go in parks at night now supervise their own children with fanatical
attention, even though crime rates have plummeted. It’s as if they’re
responding to the sense of menace they felt while young, not the
actual conditions of today.
The crime wave killed off the hippie movement. The hippies celebrated
disorder, mayhem and the whole Dionysian personal agenda. By the
1970s, the menacing results of that agenda were all around. The crime
wave made it hard to think that social problems would be solved
strictly by changing the material circumstances. Shiny new public
housing blocks replaced rancid old tenements, but in some cases the
disorder actually got worse.
The crime wave made it hard to accept the story line that the poor
were always spiritually pure, noble and oppressed.
The crime wave eroded the sense of solidarity that existed after World
War II. The rich isolated themselves. The middle classes moved to the
suburbs.
Yet eventually crime was reduced, and the neighborhoods were restored.
It’s easy to be nostalgic for the supposedly more authentic New York
of days gone by — for Jane Jacobs’s busy Greenwich Village block. But,
as Benjamin Schwarz of The Atlantic recently observed, that golden
image of New York really only applied to small parts of the city and
only during a transition moment when the manufacturing economy of the
mid-20th century briefly overlapped with the information economy of
the late-20th century.
As Podhoretz rightly notes, if you grew up in a big city in the ’70s,
then life is better for you now in about every respect. Today, most
liberals and conservatives have more sophisticated views on how to
build and preserve civic order than people did then, and there is more
of it.
The Upper West Side is still integrated. And despite all expectations,
it’s actually more religious now. For example, there are now 4,000
children attending yeshivas, Jewish schools and Jewish nursery schools
in the neighborhood.
The children of the ’70s grew up with both unprecedented freedom and
disorder, and have learned, in mostly good ways, from both.
