"[The] sense that the city has been victimized over years and years -- some of it may be true, some may not be," he says, "[but] ... we have to avoid re-litigating the past and look toward the future."
Always a victim. It's gotta be someone else's fault..

They're also pretty good at electing rapacious politicians and returning them to office over and over again.
