We recently had the parade for the championship Cavaliers that drew an estimated 1 million participants. The parade was late in starting and took longer than planned. People were out in the sun (upper 70’s/low 80’s) for hours. And there was only 1 incident as people were starting to go home when some guy shot at his girlfriend. Otherwise it was entirely peaceful.
It is a troubled place but there are hopefully enough people who care to deal with it.
