Er, Kite-flying is a hazard? To whom or what? Is Rudy afraid his cape is
going to get caught in the kite-strings when he's doing his Superman shtick?
Has his ego gotten so big that he thinks if a kite hits it his head will
explode?

 Mosquito As Metaphor: Giuliani Gasses NY

 There's nothing uncharacteristic about Mayor Giuliani's decision
 to turn NYC into a poison gas ghetto. Dousing eight million
 men, women and children with poison gas in order to eradicate
 encephalitis mosquitoes that so far are unproven to even exist
 shows the low regard our Mayor has for human life.

OF course, the pesticide used, Malathion, is NOT a gas, it's an
aerosol spray, particulates suspended in a volatile solution;
this distinction may be too subtle for some propagandists.  And
not all of New York is being sprayed, just the City. So a more
accurate headline would be: GIULIANI DOSES NYC.

Mosquito As Metaphor: Giuliani Gasses NY

There’s nothing uncharacteristic about Mayor Giuliani’s decision
to turn NYC into a poison gas ghetto. Dousing eight million
men, women and children with poison gas in order to eradicate
encephalitis mosquitoes that so far are unproven to even exist
shows the low regard our Mayor has for human life. Six years of
previous Giuliani initiatives have been characterized by his
enthusiasm for resorting to the most drastic measures available
by law, and many that clearly violate the law, in order to
eliminate what he considers pests.

For Giuliani an emergency situation occurs when a wealthy
contributor whispers a complaint about something during a
fundraiser or his staff comes up with the possibility of a
lightening quick response to an issue that will give him the
chance to appear decisive on TV. His thirteen million dollar gas
proof bunker in the World Trade Center was built to function as
a stage from which to broadcast weekly episodes of Action Rudy,
Superhero Savior of New York!

Superheros need easily recognizable villains to fight, preferably
ones who are hated or feared by the community. Mosquitoes are
an even better enemy for Giuliani than the homeless or street
artists. Mosquitoes have no friends in high places.

Ultimately however, we are all mosquitoes to Rudy Giuliani.
When the Mayor’s Manhattan Institute inspired eradication
campaigns were previously focused on squeegee guys, street
artists, homeless people and vendors, all of whom were also
described as plagues destroying New York’s quality of life, few
people saw any need for alarm.

As the Mayor gradually trained his sights on CUNY students,
community gardeners and welfare recipients more people became
concerned but allowed themselves to be lulled into complacency
by the Republican logic of cutting spending and putting people
to work. By the time the Mayor was privatizing public hospitals,
schools and parks, giving the wealthiest corporations in the City
massive tax write offs and denying any groups he disliked the
right to freedom of speech and assembly we’d all become so used
to the arbitrary elimination of rights that, for most New Yorkers,
resistance seemed futile.

Like the proverbial frogs placed in a pot of cold water that is
gradually brought to a boil we’ve found ourselves unable to jump
out of the Mayor’s police state before it was too late.

Just think of the perceptual alterations Giuliani has brought to
once liberal New York. The public and the supposedly liberal
media have come to accept that police shootings of unarmed and
in many cases, completely innocent people, are justified. Daily
aerial gassings of the entire City are now routine. We no longer
seriously question the hundreds of thousands of illegal searches
in minority communities and additional hundreds of thousands
of so-called quality of life arrests for non criminal activity that
are never brought to trial. The seizing and selling at auction of
personal property without the need for a trial or conviction of
any crime has become commonplace.

Despite a billion dollar surplus and the existence of numerous
genuine public health crises in New York no one is seriously
questioning the dismantling of what was once the nation’s best
system of public hospitals. Cuts in funding for the most essential
public resources including libraries, ambulances, building
inspections, public health and even mosquito abatement go
totally unchallenged. Like a prison warden gradually cutting
rations and privileges in order to psychologically intimidate, the
Mayor rules over us the convicts under his charge with an iron
hand.

In response to those who dare to take a public stand against this
bully Rudy’s retribution is swift and certain. For an elected
official like City Council Member Steven DiBrienza the Mayor
can place homeless shelters in your district if you get out of line.
Federal judges that rule against him find their names in the next
day’s newspaper alongside words like crazy, stupid and insane.
Reporters that dare to ask him an embarrassing question or write
a story that puts the Mayor in a bad light often find their jobs are
in jeopardy. For City-funded agencies such as Housing Works or
Legal Aid, massive funding cuts can be implemented to teach
them to mind their manners. And for outspoken critics like
myself and Christopher Brodeur who can’t be fired or have their
benefits cut, false arrests and malicious prosecutions follow like
the days of the week.

Now that the Malathion Madman has intimidated the media, his
political opposition and the general public into passively
accepting being covered with organophosphate nerve gasses on a
daily basis, new frontiers are opening for Giuliani’s quality of
life police state. Forced inoculations can
