...Mayor Lindsay in his attack on the campaign issue of law and order speaks of liberty. I find myself wondering if the liberty that he speaks of is the liberty to be afraid to walk the streets of a once-great city after dark, or the liberty to refrain from using its parks or the liberty of the people of that city to bolt and rebolt their doors and windows so that they may sleep free from the fear of being murdered in their beds.
