another rude awakening, no choice but conform

It's Monday in NYC. I guess I should get used to seeing cops in riot great and K9 units (http://project05952381.blogspot.com/2010/10/rude-wild-awakening.html), but I still freak out. Since the American way of life was raped nine years ago (http://project05952381.blogspot.com/2010/09/9-years-after-being-upset.html) and might never recover, I guess I've got NO CHOICE BUT CONFORM.
