Olympics in NY
Today mayor Bloomberg and Co. pitched New York City to be host for Olympic Games in 2012. Main point was that city that hosts UN and a lot of other things would be a warm host to the Olympics and this will send a message of friendship, warmth and so on and so on.
From a perspective of a person who lives in Brooklyn and commutes to Manhattan every day (particularly - to Grand Central Station, 42 Street by 4 or 5 train) I cannot even imagine the chaos that will rein upon the neighborhood I am working in. But besides my personal preferences there’s another thing that worries me. The city that hosts UN and Olympics will also send a message to all terrorists and maniacs all other the world as the very possible target and that, being a resident of NY, is not something I look forward to.
