ORLANDO, Fla. -- Incidents of beer bottles tossed at police prompted
a major crackdown outside nightclubs in downtown Orlando that included
officers patrolling the crowds with large assault rifles.

Police said they want to take control back of the downtown area after
some incidents by people leaving clubs, according to the report.
"They are out-of-control partiers," Local 6's Laura Diaz said. "They
are coming out of nightclubs like Taboo and they are absolutely losing
control. They are throwing beer bottles at patrol cars and urinating
off balconies."


Local 6 video showed officers carrying large assault rifles as they
monitored the crowds Thursday night and early Friday.
In recent weeks, there have been shooting and robberies in the
downtown area, Diaz said.

Meanwhile, club owners in downtown Orlando are lobbying to keep their
businesses open two hours later, the report said.
The crackdown is the second this year.

You should choose your words more carefully. When you write: "Oh I get it
now.... yes Orlando is a wicked place unlike <insert your lame hometown
here>. " You are inviting just about anyone to point out that you truly are
an idiot. I wouldn't want to raise my family in a place like Orlando.

As bad as the stats are that I posted they are from 2003, it has gotten much
worse.
Tourists should stay out of the city and stay on property if possible. Even
then you get robbed in Orlando with their 12% tax. They need the money to
fight crime.

Are you kidding? Where would you want to raise your family because when
you start going to cities the size of Orlando and larger you have more
crime. You do know the area code for the Bronx is 911 right, not Orlando.
My whole point, which you failed to grasp, is that crime is EVERYWHERE.

I travel around the world and I've been to many cities with much worse crime
rates than Orlando (hell I live in one Washington DC) but I've never been
mugged or murdered. People just need to learn to be safe EVERYWHERE they
go. It blows my mind that idiots like you who try to "massage numbers" to
make Orlando out to be something it's not when viewed in context.

Nice bias there.... The reason I brought up Lake Buena Vista is because
most people are uninformed and think Orlando is the home of Disney when it's
not. Das macht nichts though, Orlando is still safer than the majority of
cities out there.
