Do you remember the term “whirlpooling”? Also a new part of our vocabulary from the Dinkins era; a group of young male ferals would surround a young girl in a city pool, start swimming circles around her, and then take turns entering the center and molesting her...
Didn’t the “bathroom attendant” close the pools for a time over that?
Oh, he did even better; from the NY Times:
“Wearing a button that read “Don’t Dis Your Sis,” Mayor David N. Dinkins yesterday announced the start of a public relations campaign aimed at encouraging young men to respect their female counterparts.
The campaign was spurred by a recent spate of sexual assaults at city pools in which young men, often chanting rap lyrics, wrapped arms and churned through the water, ripping the bathing suits off young girls and fondling them in a phenomenon known as “the whirlpool.” The police said five such attacks, all at different pools, were reported in less than a week with the latest reported on Sunday. Three youths were arrested in that attack.
Mr. Dinkins said he was outraged by the assaults.
“Part of what we want to try to do is to educate our young people,” Mr. Dinkins said. “We want to try to convey to them that it is not appropriate behavior, that it is in no way macho to put upon young girls. It just isn’t.”
The campaign will distribute flyers and buttons bearing the slogans “Don’t Dis Your Sis” and “Whirlpool Ain’t Cool” at local pools, and broadcast public service announcements on local radio stations, said Joyce F. Brown, Deputy Mayor for Public and Community Affairs,”
What a sh!thole...
At least, thanks to Dinkins, we got Giulliani.
Best mayor by far in the 57 years I lived in Fun City.
I left right after Rudy did.
We seem to have reached the point where mob behavior is officially treated as a legitimate form of reparations.
Bloomberg kept the lid on things, but now its all undone...
