In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, we focused on the few idiots who looted . . . now we're going to focus on how everyone else stopped committing ANY crimes.  The crime rate in New York City dropped by at least ONE-THIRD after Sandy hit.  Last week, murder was down 86% and rape was down 44%. 

The mayor of Newark, New Jersey won over a lot of people after by opening up HIS OWN HOUSE to displaced families.  He ended up taking in about 12 people and bought them food, set them up in bedrooms, and bought them DVDs to watch. 

To help with the Sandy relief effort, an Anheuser-Busch plant in Georgia stopped producing beer . . . and started filling cans with WATER to ship to New York and New Jersey.  They'll donate more than one million cans. 

On Friday, Mayor Bloomberg cancelled the New York Marathon scheduled for Sunday, because so many people around the city were still struggling to recover from the hurricane.  And instead of running in the race, thousands of marathon runners volunteered around the city, passing out supplies and helping clean out flooded homes. Before the Mayor's decision, this NYC resident below felt that not enough was being done.  Thankfully, he stepped up, cancelled the event, and more help came.
