We're New Yorkers

We've been here before. We'll be here again. It's the price we pay for living in the world's greatest city. 

I don't think this young man who came from elsewhere to commit an act of terror in NYC yesterday had any real goal in mind besides terrorizing people. 

And he did. But however many he people he killed or hurt, ultimately he failed -- as did all those who came before him and all those will inevitably come after him. 

They fail because New Yorkers are tough and strong. We've dealt and will deal with much worse.  We don't live in fear. And a moron like this won't change who we are or how we live (the only thing that will change is how he'll live, namely in prison for the rest of his life). 

We go on. We survive. We thrive. It's who we are. It's what we do. We're New Yorkers.

Think this city would be so great if we weren't?
