The old NYC you'd see fights all the time. The moron frat boys who have taken over the East Village don't even fight on Saturday nites anymore, too busy watching sports on flat screens.
when I lived in Williamsburg in the 80's I once came home, went upstairs, then looked out the window to see what the yelling I was hearing was - where I had just seconds ago watched a gang of 30-40 people was kicking the shit out of a single guy. Actually I saw the same thing up in Wash Hights a few years ago when I lived up there, there was like 25 guys on either side of the street clicking bottles - clunk cunk, clunk clunk, clunk clunk, all following this one guy who they then started beating the crap out of right under my window - paramedics showed up and I one of them nudged the guy with his foot, the guy looked totally dead then suddenly he sprang up! When the cops showed up, one of the thugs - who were all hanging around - unrolled a red banner and waved it at the cops who then took off.
