You Betcha.

And anyone from here knows exactly what Guiliani Time meant.

I'm here going on 56 years old so I guess that includes "Giuliani Time." And I don't agree with "And anyone from here knows exactly what Giuliani Time meant." So please don't make a blanket statement that incudes myself ever again. Thank you in advance.

great post alfa, I am one guy who completely agrees with you, crime-buster my ass, he's a shameless self-serving egomaniac. and deserves no respect.

Please. I'll take the opinions of people who ACUTALLY lived in New York under the time of Guiliani as mayor and his time as DA. I also have an aunt, uncle, and numerous friends who remember life under Rudy Guiliani as the mayor. Was he perfect man? Absolutely not and people will have different opinions him. The problem is yours is based on virtually nothing.

Alfa same goes for you. Especially when you misread posts as often as you do



my opinons of this guy are hearing him, and seeing him,and no matter how much you slander any one who disagrees with you, you will never change their opinion.

I'm not saying you don't have a right to your opinion. Everyone does. Everyone from the KKK right down to feminazis and communists.

You may watch Guiliani from a TV or read about him in a newspaper, but I doubt you have the perspective to judge him as accurately as native New Yorkers who lived during his time as Mayor. That's all I'm saying

Yeah and seriously what the fuck does "Guiliani Time" even mean?

When I made reference to him in my response to you Alfa, I said 'Guiliani's time as mayor'. The two don't even compare. One sounds like a dance floor phrase, the other simple references his achievements and positions he had as the mayor of New York.

By the way, if you quickly skim posts like you said you do, is it any wonder you made a BS comment?

Giuliani Time was a joke around here. When a cop by the name of Justin Volpe rammed a wooden plunger up the backside of an arrestee, the complaint stated that right before he took the plunge, he said "It's Giuliani Time!" The complaint may not be entirely true, and the mantra Giuliani Time may have never been said, but the plunger was used and the arrestee needed hospitalization and won a ton of money, our money, as residents of NYC. But you see, that's part of the game. The officer is never sued. His hometown never pays a nickel. The money is divested from the community he is beating up with nightsticks and toilet plungers, thus impoverishing an area already beset with inferior services due to supposed lower tax revenues.

That's what Giuliani Time meant.

This has nothing to do with Giuliani as mayor.. every mayoral administration is beset with civil lawsuits. Political enemies would certainly tried to associate the two by innuendo or otherwise.

I think Guliani was a good mayor. He never would have been elected if it was not for the bozo Dinkins.

I hated the comb over that he had. Big time Yankee fan.

Diblasio go to any Yankee games? A lot more gun crimes under Diblasio why is that?

Diblasio who does he marry a self proclaimed lesbian smile it true he is a stud who can get a lesbo to fall in love with a man.

DeBlasio is a met fan though. But I get what you're saying. Sometimes I wonder if all of the Hillary Clinton hype is just brought on by her and her camp because I really never see anybody around who has anything positive to say about her. Maybe everywhere I go is a republican area. People always ask me if I'm a republican or democrat but I'm really more of an independent who leans to the right. If a democratic candidate comes along who is really great who deserves to get in over the republican I'll vote for him. But I haven't seen a case in which that has happened in a while. I've stuck with the republicans for a really long time. Don't forget that around the time Nixon was in office republicans and democrats kind of reversed views. If you're a republican today then years ago you would be a democrat based on your views and vice versa.

Giuliani was a leader. Compare NYC in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks to New Orleans after Katrina, and you'll know exactly what I mean.

Could Giuliani be abrasive? Yes. Is he an egomaniac? Clearly. Every great leader is. He accomplished what was once thought to be impossible. He had the balls to make unpopular statements and stand by them.

He attended as many funerals of the 9/11 victims as he could. He hugged and comforted as many families as possible. He was the one bright spot in those days.

Will he be President? Never. He's too liberal for the right and has too much personal baggage. I wish that he had run for governor instead of President, though. He would have made a great governor for NY.

Well said, Sicilian Babe. His leadership in the aftermath of 9/11 was a tremendous thing not only for NYC, but for the country.

Guiliani was far from perfect, but his legacy (in my mind) will be forever linked to 9/11.

Certainly. For those here outside of NY, I think it's fair to say that everyone in NYC certainly didn't have the same opinion about it (the phrase Giuliani Time).

Of course maybe there are many NYC residents who never heard the phrase, or saw the photo of the restaurant with the mannequin out front holding a plunger with the caption underneath..."It's Giuliani Time!" There are still many people out there who don't follow the news or politics. That type of person might sound like a hick, but we actually need them to keep society civil.

I don't see how one gungho cop run amok makes Guiliani a bad mayor or his policies bad. You're talking about isolated incidents not the overall effectiveness of his policies.

rockstar, as much as some would like to separate Giuliani from the actions of a few rogue officers on the police force, the truth is that he was always the first to associate himself with them and defend them, no matter what.

When Patrick Dorismond was shot dead, Giuliani rushed into the archives and released a sealed criminal record. The stunning revelation? The guy punched someone in the face once upon a time. That was it. But Giuliani did that in a hurry to prejudice any judge or jury in the police's favor. He did all of that before any of the facts were even known. He was "NYC's mayor", but he took sides against one of NYC's own unarmed citizens.

For Giuliani, whenever someone got shot by the police, it was:

Cops +1
subhumans 0

and 'Go Jets!'

And now you have an asshole like DeBlasio who has disrespected the police force and undermined them to the point where crime is going up again. It'll continue to go up as long as you have that momo in office.

I'd take a leader Guiliani that defends his own, rather than a weak fool who parades his biracial family like a circus act.

From what I've seen of DiBlasio, he's not a person of high moral code. His son is biracial or black, yet he would not sign the bill into law making deadly choke holds banned by the NYPD illegal.

That tells someone like me a lot.

It has nothing to do with Mayor Giuliani, the phrase was contrived as propaganda to associate bad cops behavior with the Mayor. Mayor of Baltimore is black yet I don't see anyone making the same association with bad cop behavior in that city, except when they were told to stand down during the riots.

I wasn't referring to you. I was painting a more accurate picture of New York City as a whole: Anti giuliani, Pro giuliani, and those who don't know and don't care. Some people are actually "apolitical".

Who was Mayor when they shot the innocent black guy apx 50 times in the housing projects?

What was their procedure hid behind a wall. Then empty their guns multiple times
Before looking at who they were shooting at or if he was even hit. The poor guy was even hit in the sole of his foot multiple times.

Who should be blamed for that?

Who should be blamed for that?


If you're referring to Amadou Diallo who was killed in the doorway of his own apartment building with 40 to 50 shots and was unarmed, the mayor would have been giuliani.
