Lawlessness in NYC is becoming unwieldy, and it's not just the index crimes.

More New Yorkers are pushing back in various situations, both big and small.

Too many weirdos relieve themselves in public. Drinking in public, smoking dope and jumping the turnstile to increases in more serious crimes. 

Unlicensed vendors have lately become an issue. They are totally unaccountable, uninspected potentially dangerous to the health of everyone in the city. 

In this episode I interview NYC attorney Sonya Shaykhoun who talks about her experience with an unlicensed vendor, and how their dispute snowballed into something much larger. 

It's emblamatic of a belief system that spreads like a mind virus, one for which there is no known cure.
