Tony I am familiar with the racial strife/riots of Cincy. When I lived there (briefly in the beginning of 1998), there were instances of violence involving police officers. One incident ocurred near where I lived (I lived in Mt. Auburn). A friend of mine was even stopped for jaywalking and the police officer searched his mouth for gold teeth. I even had a teacher who was a bit suspect. Now mind you, I hail from liberal Washington, DC and things like these are virtually unheard of. Jaywalking is a part of life here and the police don't care Honestly, I didn't like it there but I did love the food very much. Oh how I would love to have Skyline and all those other places I mentioned again. I hope Mallory does make a difference in the city.

I never really felt safe in Over the Rhine
The police department has had more than a reasonable share of "questionable" incidents, IMO (and I have friends on the force there). Law enforcement is not easy and generally, I always give police the benefit of the doubt. But not that department; there just have been too many incidents.

Mt. Auburn, huh? you were out there where the ballers roam ....
