You know... the Today show and several other news shows in New York broadcast from ground level studios with people who just walk by and are not policed to be let in and they never have this problem. Guaranteed that New York has many many many more crazies than here in Portland. I think it will be fine and I'm glad they are bringing some life back to the square that is not just during festivals and stuff.

I am also one of "those people" and I am also a "20 something" and I don't act like an idiot. But, I will give you the fact that I do not hang out with many 20 somethings because many of them do act like idiots. The downtown snob part of me also likes to think that many of those idiots are coming into downtown from the suburbs... but I digress.
